Motion · S4M-15830 · 4 Mar 2016
Underrepresented Groups Encouraged to Find Work in Construction
The motion
That the Parliament recognises that the Glasgow construction firm, City Building, and Black and Ethnic Minority Infrastructure in Scotland, have, with the support of the West of Scotland Regional Equality Council, organised a series of taster sessions for young people from ethnic minorities as part of Scottish Apprenticeship Week; understands that the events will also aim to help women and people who are long-term unemployed or from minority groups gain employment in the construction industry, and believes that the apprenticeship week is a great opportunity to help underrepresented groups across Scotland to find work.
