What is Skills Support for Redundancy?
Skills Support for Redundancy (SSR) is a support scheme funded by the European Social Fund (ESF). It is aimed at employers who are undergoing restructures or closures who have employees at risk of redundancy, or individuals who have been made redundant within the last three months.
This funding offers both employers and individuals the opportunity to refresh existing skills or gain new skills in different areas, helping them to progress or gain employment. With the help of targeted careers advice and tailored skills in training, it can help individuals to meet the needs of recruiting employers.
