Tesco is meeting with the Department for Work and Pensions this week to urge ministers to remove the threat of jobseekers losing benefits if they drop out of the scheme.
However, the UK's biggest supermarket has never offered a separate Government work scheme, which is mandatory and forces people to go on unpaid placements or lose their benefits. Other retailers including Sainsbury's have also decided not to offer this.

Tesco said that although it was sticking with the coalition's work experience scheme, it would now offer jobseekers a choice of remaining on benefits or taking up paid work with a guarantee of a staff job at the end of the four-week placement if the trial was successful.

They offer 4 week work experience placements in conjunction with the Prince's Trust. I did 3 weeks work experience whilst still at school around 40 years ago. That was as a Lab assistant. What is so different?
