The Work Programme delivered by Affinity Sutton on Behalf of Action 4 Employment is the government’s new payment-for-results welfare-to-work programme that launched throughout Great Britain in June 2011.

The Work Programme

Along with the Universal Credit benefit reforms, The Work Programme is central to the Coalition Government’s ambitious programme of welfare reform.

The Work Programme is being delivered by Affinity Sutton in the Bromley region which holds our highest concentration of properties nationally. The aim of the programme is to support long term unemployed, high risk groups and those who are at risk of becoming long-term unemployed to find sustainable work. It replaces previous programmes such as the New Deals, Employment Zones and Flexible New Deal and represents a long-term investment by government and its partners in seeking to help more people into lasting work.
