The motion
That the Parliament congratulates Orkney Builders (Contractors) Ltd in Kirkwall, Orkney, on being named Skills Development Scotland's Youth Employer of the Month for April 2015; understands that the company offers work placements to school pupils, Employability Fund candidates and college students and also gives work trials; understands that, in Orkney, it can be challenging for SME businesses to find the staff time to support work experience yet the company finds time to play an active role in various schemes designed to commit to the community and young people; commends Orkney Builders (Contractors) Ltd on its long-standing dedication to employing and training the islands’ young people, and hopes and this will encourage more organisations to invest in the future and retain loyal and skilled employees.
