Salvation Army And Workfare
April 4, 2014
Spotted on Facebook. Quite shocking. Please share widely.
Did you know that as a company that is part of the governments work program, the Salvation Army have the right to dish out sanctions to your anyone who has been referred to them by JobCenterPlus who doesn’t follow the strict rules. Benefit sanctions can be given out to people for being late, missing appointments, or not carrying out instructions to the letter.
The charity that is supposed to help people who have fallen on hard times is now forcing some of those same people in to poverty.

This government has certainly shown us worst side of the new charity industry, with its use of forced labour, marketing department and overpaid chief executive. It also sheds light on what George Osborne has in mind when he says the Conservative party will aim to have full ’employment’. By employment he means forced labour in any job you are offered and for a wage at the rate of Job Seekers Allowance.
