An NGO, Global Perspective Inc (GPI), is planning to set up a programme to assist those persons who have been let go from public sector agencies over the past months.
According to a GPI release yesterday, it has developed and will soon implement a programme, the ‘Next Level Support Network’, the aim of which is to provide economic and psycho-social support to those persons who have been terminated from various public sector agencies over the past months.
In addition, the ‘Next Level Support Network’, is focussed on assisting those persons affected, in determining the next level in their career and life, as well as advocate for the review of employment laws and policies.
Some of the activities will include an assessment/survey to determine: the number of persons/professionals whose services were terminated over the past months; areas of expertise and levels of positions; areas of job/professional interest; areas of interest for reskilling those persons; forums to provide psycho-social support; and organizing economic support and training.
GPI has also extended an invitation to those persons in public sector agencies who are also concerned about losing their employment and are interested in participating in the programme.
Persons who are interested in participating in the ‘Next Level Support Network’ are invited to contact the Global Perspective Inc Coordinator (Volunteer), Audreyanna Thomas, at email address: iamguyana2020@yahoo.com, the release added.
