Tús

Tús

Tús is a community work placement programme that offers a one year work placement opportunity to people who have been unemployed and on the live register for more than 12 months. All Tús work placements are based within local community groups and not-for-profit organisations. 

Community Groups and Not-For-Profit organisations play a key role in initiating work placements that will provide participants with valuable working opportunities in a quality work setting. Any local organisation, which has a placement opportunity should contact us. We will send you an Expression of Interest Form and take you through the registration process. DNP delivers the programme on behalf of the Department of Employment Affairs and Social Protection (DEASP).
