Waldo Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Why are they getting special help (9 million) from the gov. When people losing their jobs in other industries, get zero help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister M Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 I've not researched this but I would imagine that the steelworks are in areas that historically are heavily dependent on steel, and have no other employers in the area. I would imagine that the money will help to fund things like retraining. I don't begrudge those who have lost their jobs this money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When woolworths (and others) hit the wall, the staff made redundant could get another retail job with little if any additional training. I can't think of much a trained, experienced steelworker could do apart from steelwork. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*_ash_* Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Get ready for the bosses reaction to the living wage,automation is comming,and its the owners of these daleks that will take the money,pretty soon wel all be redundant Take away the bold and it's what's been said ever since the first person invented a tool to solve a problem. Things/terms like 'living wage' is just today's bull**** term to cover it up. It's small fish. The real problem we have now/in the future, is so many redundant people. The population of the planet has exploded due to all the efficiencies/medical knowledge that people have built. People lap up cheap stuff, and always have because it's an evolved state to get the best you can get for the least outgoings. In the globalised world that we live in now, no government can stop this.
