(Redirected from Job Centre)
JobCentre Plus (Canolfan Byd Gwaith in Welsh) is the government-funded employment agency facility and the social security office in the United Kingdom, often operated from a high street shop. The agency was formerly titled the Jobcentre and existed alongside a separate social security office until their merger in 2002. It has executive agency status.
JobCentre Plus typically provides resources to enable the unemployed find work, including posting vacant job listings using a computer system called Jobpoint, providing job-search help and information about training opportunities, and administering unemployment benefits.
