Borders Working Rite

Borders Working Rite Project is a service designed to match up enthusiastic young local people with suitable employers throughout the Berwickshire area to give a rewarding 6 month work placement, rewarding for both parties that is.

"Working Together to get the Borders Working Right".

Borders Working Rite follows a tried and tested method which helps youngsters grow into employable, mature young adults. There are currently 6 such projects across the country with more in the pipeline. It works by placing the trainee with an experienced worker who by mentoring the trainee can give them not only excellent work experience but invaluable life skills that can only be gained in an adult environment. This is not “just another course”, this is a real deal, a working partnership between the youngster and the contractor. It’s all about learning on the job – not on a course in a classroom somewhere, surrounded by their peers – but on site, with adults like you who can pass on invaluable life lessons to the trainees.

Here’s the deal for YOU, the Employer;

A helping hand at a cost you can afford – you pay £1 per hour!
Hassle free recruitment, with no obligation – we interview for you!
No paperwork mountain – we complete all that for you!
No expensive tools or PPE to buy – we provide the essentials!
If things don’t go to plan, don’t worry – we provide the backup!

What does the trainee get from you?

Practical on the job training;
Hands on work experience;
An opportunity to learn new skills;
Treated as one of the workforce.

Borders Working Rite really is a "win - win" situation for everyone involved
