Government job scheme offers positions in car washes and delis

People Before Profit TD Paul Murphy said that some of the jobs listed as part of the Government's Pathways to Work initiative come without any real training and work out at an hourly rate of €3.43 an hour.
A government job scheme which has been labelled a rebranding of the controversial JobBridge scheme has advertised positions in car washes, delis and sports stores.
The Work Placement Experience Programme is part of the Government's Pathways to Work initiative, which aims to see 2.5 million people employed by 2024.
