Jobcentres
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what methodology her Department uses to determine the allocation of Jobcentre Plus (a) resources and (b) staff to each local area in the UK.
- Answer
-
The Department continually reviews the service being offered to customers. Staff numbers, including the number of work coaches, and demand for Jobcentre services are reviewed on an ongoing basis, in line with the latest economic and Universal Credit forecasts.
Jobcentre demand and supply are modelled down to a site level, taking into account local factors such as staff attrition and estates capacity, alongside overall affordability considerations across DWP Service Delivery.
