Ricardo Menendez-March: Welfare sanctions "punishing unemployed people"

From tomorrow, beneficiaries will need to comply with two more obligations to continue receiving welfare.  They will need to provide evidence of at least three job searches a week for four weeks, and attend employment-related training courses for at least five hours a week for four weeks.  The sanctions are aimed at increasing employability, but critics think it's punishing beneficiaries for being out of work.  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
