answer text: Information on job starts from the Work Programme is not available, as job outcome payments to providers are only made when participants have been in work and off benefit for a sustained period; in the majority of cases at least 26 weeks, but 13 weeks for those in certain categories. Work Programme participants must work sufficient hours to come off benefit for their employment to count as a job outcome, but beyond that information on part-time versus full-time employment is not available. The available information on job outcomes is shown in the following tables: 1:Work Programme job outcomes for payment groups 1, 2 and 9, where joboutcomes are defined as in work and off benefit for at least 26 weeks,as at 30 June2013 Area Total GreatBritain 117,470 NorthEastRegion 7,130 SouthTyneside localauthority 520 Jarrowparliamentaryconstituency 240 2:Work Programme Job outcomes for payment groups 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8,where job outcomes are defined as in work and off benefit for at least13 weeks, as at 30 June2013 Employmentduration Area Total 13weeks up to 25weeks 25weeks andover GreatBritain 50,950 16,910 34,040 NorthEastRegion 2,630 880 1,750 SouthTyneside localauthority 200 70 130 Jarrowparliamentaryconstituency 70 30 40 Statistics on how many people in Jarrow parliamentary constituency, South Tyneside, the North East and Great Britain have participated in the Work Programme since its inception can be found at: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/department-for-work-pensions/series/dwp-statistics-tabulation-tool#benefit-caseloads
