Action for Employment

"A4e is a leading public service provider, serving thousands of people across three continents – Europe, Australasia and Asia. A4e’s core mission is to improve people’s lives. We work in partnership with governments, public sector organisations, private sector companies, voluntary and community groups to deliver a range of front line public services, including employment and welfare, training, education and money and legal advice....

"In the UK, over 20 years ago, large numbers of Sheffield steelworkers began losing their jobs as the sector fell into decline. Emma Harrison started A4e in response to a need to help provide redundant workers with the training they needed to find work in other industries. And – the flip side of the coin – A4e were then able to supply companies with newly trained and enthusiastic workers."
