KIDDERMINSTER Jobcentre is among those to undergo a digital revolution.

High-tech equipment, including specially-designed computers that bring all Jobcentre services into one device, will be installed at Jobcentres across the West Midlands.

More than 700 sites across Britain, including Kidderminster, are being digitally transformed, bringing them into the 21st century and making it easier for people to find work.

Around 23,000 electronic signing pads will also become a new fixture signalling an end to the old-fashioned paper booklets.

Free WiFi and 6000 digital job search computers are being installed, giving claimants greater opportunity and flexibility in searching and applying for jobs online, as they can use the equipment on site, or their own devices.

Esther McVey, Minister for Employment, said: “Every day, Jobcentres across the country are helping people into work, contributing to record fall in unemployment.

“We’re seeing record employment levels – and with this digital revolution, the Government is doing even more to help people into work.”

The electronic signing pads will be appearing in Jobcentres from this month – with rollout set to be completed by Spring next year.
