Nassau, The Bahamas – The Bahamas Department of Labour, in a strategic alliance with the Ministry of National Security is launching its first public awareness campaign with component two (2) of the Citizen Security and Justice Programme (CSJP), which is the component related to at-risk youth skills training. This programme would directly engage the Department of Labour’s Public Employment Services (PES) Unit by providing data from the surveys to help in the facilitation of job placement for the programme participants. Specifically, the public awareness activities will be attached to the recruitment and application process for the upcoming soft skills and technical skills training during the first quarter of 2018. The campaign is targeting the completion of 500 pre-surveys filled out by at-risk youth with an accompanying post-survey to be completed after the training. These surveys, for practical purposes, will have a tri-part function of screening, application and a monitoring and evaluation tool. The completion of these surveys will not only provide pertinent data in the assessment of placement for unemployed persons, but also serves the purpose of meeting the Citizen Security and Justice Programme’s projected deliverables for its Annual Operation Plan for 2017. The launch of the public awareness campaign, to be held at the Department of Labour’s Rosetta Street location will allow for the general public and the media to be informed of the Citizen Security and Justice Programme’s purpose, the process for applying and details on the planned training sessions. The projected launch date for the Citizen Security and Justice Programme is Monday, November 27th, 2017.
