Our first contract was New Deal, which we delivered across Forth Valley and then Fife. In 2007, we began delivering Pathways to Work in Forth Valley, Fife and Tayside. Pathways to Work was the first major programme to help people with health conditions move into employment.
In 2011, the commencement of the Work Programme saw Triage move into North East England, delivering employment support across Tees Valley.
Today, we deliver employability programmes across Scotland and England on behalf of the Department for Work and Pensions, the Scottish Government and a number of Scottish Local Employability Partnerships.
Our programmes are delivered by a team of experienced Employment Advisers who provide tailored, one-to-one advice to help people from a wide range of backgrounds move into work. As well as practical help like CV building, interview skills and job searching, our services also extend to helping people find the confidence to look for work, then supporting them once they move into employment - ultimately helping them to progress towards their full potential in the labour market.
There are 2.8 million people out of work due to long-term illness.
The Government is investing £240m to trial new ways to get people back into work and support the ambition of a national 80% employment rate, this includes Connect to Work.
Connect to Work has been designed to support individuals with health conditions, disabilities, and complex barriers in finding the right job at the right time with the most suitable employer.

The Work and Health Programme is an employability programme commissioned by the Department for Work and Pensions.
The Work and Health Programme provides support for individuals with health conditions or disabilities who are unemployed, helping them to get back into the labour market. It’s voluntary unless the participant has been out of work and claiming unemployment benefits for 24 months.

No One Left Behind (NOLB) is the Scottish Government’s policy framework and approach to tackling employment issues across the nation. It aims to ensure those who experience complex and multiple barriers to moving into work are not ‘left behind’.
