Step-Up Achievements: Year 1

Step-Up participants 287 people recruited to the programme A third male, two-thirds female Two fifths have dependant children Range of employment sectors: cleaning, hospitality, retail predominate A mix of full- and part-time workers Average weekly earnings: £219.58

Step-Up services

Programme outcomes Note: There may be more than one outcome recorded per participant

Wage increases The average increase in hourly wage for participants that obtained: A new job was 22.3% An additional job was 10.9% A promotion or improved terms and conditions was 19.1%

Learning from Step-Up delivery

Recruitment Recruiting working participants presented new challenges and required new approaches Successful approaches: A whole service support offer / ‘no wrong doors’ approach Working with partners that offered into-work support Strong local networks and community presence Welcoming environment and person-centred advisers The concept of support for in-work progression is novel and requires clear and simple messaging Messaging focused on change and tangible outcomes Avoiding jargon Holistic support offer – ‘career progression’ not an immediate draw Emphasis on 1:1 coaching – personalised support

Delivering support Flexible, personalised one-to-one support is key, due to participant availability and diversity in circumstances/goals Combined with: Developing peer support networks or mentoring Work experience and volunteering Online jobs board / text alerts Sustaining engagement is crucial, through: Regular, personal contact (facebook, what’s app) Creating a plan with clear end goals and milestones Responding to participant needs and feedback Key challenges: Flexible 1:1 support is resource intensive Difficulties organising group sessions Challenges in finding appropriate external provision Duration of provision unsuitable to tackle some barriers (e.g. ESOL)

Achieving outcomes At this stage of the programme, projects have been most successful at achieving soft outcomes: Personal development Job search skills Career management Of ‘hard’ outcomes, most common is securing a new job, rather than improvements to existing jobs Providers found it difficult to work with employers to improve existing jobs .. Unless employer is engaged from the outset (e.g. Springboard) Need an effective strategy to secure (good) job outcomes, e.g. Job brokerage within organisation or working with external broker Partnerships (e.g. Lambeth Working, training providers) Using web-based tools to source jobs Developing individual employer relationships
