Surely this would be better dealt with Councils rather than private companies
So the community benefits? Would lead to experience, better surroundings, probably better lifestyle and health, and more importantly, better respect for the community.

Dont agree with slave labour though for the corporate monsters.

Yes, and also the community would profit
rather than the corporations.

this is my point
If the people dont like it, then it might push them away from benefits when they might have been turning down employment opportunities.

We need to make Benefits look like the last resort, rather than a sunny resort.
