Labour market information can tell you: What jobs and skills employers are looking for Which industries are recruiting and where they are located The number of people in certain types of jobs Growing or declining job areas and general employment trends When thinking about your career ideas it is useful to consider what is happening in the labour market; assess trends around you, and always have ‘back up’ ideas. See the grid opposite for some of the key factors that may afect the labour market. Work facts for the 21st century Lots of new jobs are going to be created over the next 15 years.

NANO-MEDICINE TECHNICIAN E-COMMERCE MERCHANDISER SOCIAL MEDIA STRATEGIST AVATAR TUTOR BROKER ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ENGINEER GREEN FUNERAL DIRECTOR The majority of jobs available now and in the future require at least level 3 qualifcations because many roles are increasingly using advanced technology.

Because there are going to be more skilled jobs available in these areas in the future and young people like you will be needed to do those jobs.

Sales and marketing Covid-19 and the world of work The Covid-19 pandemic has afected the economy, but we do not know yet what the long-term impact will be. We do know that some areas of work are expanding (like IT, health, social care, and life sciences) but other areas have been hit by job losses, including some parts of retail, some parts of manufacturing, and some hospitality work. Higher levels of unemployment across the country will mean that there is more competition for jobs, but there are also some new Government schemes (Plan for Jobs 2020) that encourage employers to recruit young people. More info: www.gov.uk/government/publications/a-plan-for-jobs-documents/a-plan-for-jobs-2020 As at September 2020 the details in this guide are correct, and we will update resources on our website as the area adapts to changes in the area post lockdown. See: www.llep.org.uk 5 World of Work Leicestershire Ways of working There are several diferent ways of working, which can vary based on the organisation and the job; the standard 9am to 5pm working pattern that was typical in the past has very much changed. The Covid-19 pandemic has greatly altered the way people work, with many businesses increasing their online services and lots of people having to work from home. Work places are becoming more fexible and the pace of work place change is speeding up! Diferent work patterns today include: Temporary or fxed-term contracts – employers recruit more people at busier times, such as in logistics or agriculture. Flexi-time working – employees do not work to set hours every day, such as 8.30am to 4.30pm. Shift work – people who work in factories, hospitals or warehouses often work shifts as they’re needed through the night or early in the morning. Zero or low hours contracts – sometimes employers need fexibility; a zero hours contract means that you might not know how many hours you will work from week to week.

On 5 January 2015, the CMA referred the completed acquisition by Pork Farms Caspian Limited of the chilled savoury pastry business of Kerry Foods Limited for an in-depth (phase 2) merger investigation: 1. In exercise of its duty under section 22(1) of the Enterprise Act 2002 (the Act) the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) believes that it is or may be the case that: (a) a relevant merger situation has been created, in that: (i) enterprises carried on by or under the control of Pork Farms Group Limited (formerly named Poppy Acquisition Limited) have ceased to be distinct from the chilled savoury pastry business carried on by or under the control of Kerry Foods Limited; and (ii) the condition specified in section 23(1)(b) of the Act is satisfied; and (b) the creation of that situation has resulted, or may be expected to result, in a substantial lessening of competition within a market or markets in the United Kingdom for goods or services, including in: (i) the branded, own label and convenience retail segments of the supply of cold pies; (ii) the own label and convenience retail segments of the supply of sausage rolls, pasties and slices (when considered in combination), and the branded, own label and convenience retail segments of the supply of sausage rolls (when considered individually); and (iii) the own label retail segment of the supply of hot pies.

    “How to Face the Challenges of Today's Markets” Stephen Hallam My role at Dickinson & Morris is managing the direction but my passport states Baker as my profession - it always will do - for it’s a profession of which I’m immensely proud. With this in mind I have today two principle messages for you to take away: “Opportunities always exist even in adversity - you just need to seek and identify them”. Secondly and arguably the most important, “Denigrate quality only at your peril”. Map of Melton and surrounding area So what adversity could there possibly be in Melton Mowbray, a small historic, medieval market town in the Vale of Belvoir, north east Leicestershire? Let me set the scene. A population of just 30,000. Four current and soon to be five national multiples (Tesco, Morrisons, Co-Op, Gateway and Marks & Spencer); 8 bakers including Greggs, Bakers oven and Coombs; 6 butchers and then within a 10 mile radius, all the butchers and every other Tom, Dick and Harry selling our biggest product category - Melton Mowbray Pork Pie. And within 30 minutes travel the big city allure of Nottingham, Leicester and Peterborough all have an almost magnetic attraction pulling people out of Melton! Sign of Welcome to Melton, Home of …… The town and surrounding area have a rich heritage and are famous for its rural economy, foxhunting, Stilton cheese and of course the Melton Mowbray Pork Pie. A true Market Town in every sense of the work - with a combination of Street, Cattle, Farmer’s and Bric-a-Brac markets being held on four days a week and bi-monthly separate Horse and Sheep sales which are both now the largest of their kind in the country.

  • Barker-2020-Lockdown-Leicester-1
    Lockdown Leicester: notes from a pandemic Michael Barker First published in the UK, October 2, 2020 By Hextall Press, Evington, Leicester HEXTALL PRESS 2 Introduction “After weathering the initial onslaught of Covid-19, we can’t go back to normal. Normal is what led to this, and more of it means there will be more pandemics, and they could well be worse.” This is the measured conclusions of the influential scientific journalist, Debora MacKenzie, who is the author of the recent book The Pandemic that Never Should Have Happened and How to Stop the Next One. Moving forward “We have to take the obvious preventive measures,” she says, to protect our society from future pandemics. But her conclusions fail to offer up solutions for how we might overcome the limitations of the old normal. Like the elephant in the room, missing from MacKenzie’s many recommendations is the most the obvious preventive measure, that is ensuring the thoroughgoing democratisation of political decision-making processes. A transformative action that can only be achieved by ordinary people rising- up and pushing forward a global transition to the type of socialist society whereby human needs direct political choices not the need to make profit.1 This perpetual fight for socialism is taking place in workplaces and communities across the world, and this book with its focus on Leicester, has been published as a small contribution towards building this struggle. Throughout the pandemic I have been writing for my blog (“Thoughts of a Leicester Socialist”), and the following text comprises all the posts that I wrote over a six-month period from mid-March onwards.2 When the pandemic began no one knew that Leicester would become the first city in the UK to re-enter lockdown in late June – and from that day right through to today (and no doubt much longer) people have been banned from meeting people from outside their own households in their own backyards.
