Cork Council of Trade Unions Employment Resource Centre

We wish to demonstrate to unemployed people, to employees and the public at large, our belief that the vast majority of unemployed people have the capacity and desire to take part in economic activity and so enjoy all the benefits that other people in society take for granted.

About us

About us and our training programmes

OBJECTIVES
To provide part time work opportunities for long-term unemployed people in a variety of settings, and to offer training in areas mutually beneficial to the worker, in as much as offering a path into full time employment, and to the project, by assisting with its stated aim of community development.

The objective of the CCTU Employment Resource Centre Ltd is to provide free services to disadvantaged people. In order to provide a non-institutional atmosphere, formalities and kept to a minimum and a few statistics are kept.

The Centre will contribute to the enhancement of the social and economies of life of the unemployed of Cork ( City and County ) by providing services which will boost their self esteem and update existing skills and help them to develop additional skills in order to improve their prospects of re-entry to employment.

The work programme involves the forming of an information service, a drop in canteen facility, assistance with job searching and a map of education and training services. The project is a rolling one as long as there is long-term unemployment, and its objectives will be kept under continuous observation.
