And that's how it should be. but the way this is going to work is it will mean not having to pay workers a wage at all for doing a job that they'd have to pay someone to do.
eventually meaning that there will be no reason to employ anyone. as long as the government allows it to happen.
we'll be having companies not even on the official list advertising soon.
if you want experience as a dishwasher to put on your CV. here's one.

If the claiment stays at the company on a permanent basis as the advert suggests then surely that is a way for the claimant to stay on jsa claiming full benefits for just 25hrs work .Doesn't seem like much of an incentive to get off benefits and take a full time job most likely at a low wage

Eh?
Minimum wage is:
£6.08 - the main rate for workers aged 21 and over
= £152
£4.98 - the 18-20 rate
= £124
why would you sooner work 25hrs a week for £50 - £67 instead of the above amounts, just so you don't have to take the same job for the above amounts?
