Mauritius: Back to Work Programme Contributes to Reduction of Unemployment Rate, States Minister Callichurn

press release

The Back To Work (BTW) programme targets women, above 35 years old, who wish to join or re-join the labour force so as to contribute to household expenditure and to become economically independent. The programme facilitates the integration of these women in the world of work and leads to a reduction in the overall unemployment rate in Mauritius.

The Minister of Labour, Industrial Relations, Employment and Training, Mr Soodesh Callichurn, made this statement this morning during an award of certificate ceremony organised by the Ministry of Labour, Industrial Relations, Employment and Training in collaboration with the Mauritius Institute of Training and Development (MITD) at the headquarters of the Ministry in Port Louis, for unemployed women under the BTW programme who followed technical courses at the MITD.
