What is PACE?
About PACE: Partnership Action for Continuing Employment
PACE is a unique Scottish partnership initiative which provides support to employees when an organisation is facing redundancy issues.
- Helpline number - 0808 100 1855
The initiative established by the Scottish Government is being delivered by Skills Development Scotland and supported by national and local partners, offering a service to help individuals and businesses.
Recent improvements to PACE have included the establishment of a dedicated helpline (available from the 1st February 2009) and an improved website which will open the services to more individuals and employers.
Skills Development Scotland and Jobcentre Plus will be working closely together to create a seamless service between skills development and employability support to minimise the time people affected by redundancy are out of work.
