Responses To Job Applications

EDM number 168 in 2009-10, proposed by Ashok Kumar on 23/11/2009.

That this House recognises the extremely demoralising situation in which people, especially young people, are put when they cannot secure a job; further notes that this situation is augmented when people apply for jobs and do not even receive an acknowledgement of an application or notification of final appointment; and believes that employers should be legally compelled to contact all applicants both to acknowledge receipt of application and again after selection has been made to notify applicants whether they have been successful.

This motion has been signed by a total of 98 MPs, 3 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
