There is work for everyone who wants to work -- President
|
February 2, 2010 -- President James Michel has said that the welfare agency will always be there for all those in need of financial help, but at the same time he is encouraging everyone who is able to work to seek employment and not to depend entirely on the welfare system.
“There is work for everyone who wants to work,” said the President in his monthly En Moman Avek Prezidan broadcast on Sunday and Monday.
The government introduced the welfare agency in the wake of the economic reform programme launched in November 2008. According to the President such a transformation was bound to affect the most vulnerable in our society.
He said today the welfare agency has to be strengthened and its shortcomings addressed so it can better serve the needy and prevent abuse of the system. He noted that the results of a review of the weights used to determine welfare assistance, will be announced soon.
