    Government Outsourced More than 1,100 Jobs to Private Sector in 2011

     

    To the private sector in the last financial year, new research has uncovered. It is more than 1,100 jobs from the central government departments and agencies were outsourced. By former labor cabinet minister Frank Dobson, the finding uncovered through a series of questions tabled have prompted union fears that savings are being made not through the efficiencies. However, through cuts to pay and conditions of staff as evidence emerges of the hundreds more outsourcing schemes that being tendered across the country. For jobs shifted from the public sector to private companies such as jobs relating to inspection of nursery services, IT support an d defense training. From the Ministry of Defense, a total of 1,171 jobs were transferred base to the responses to written questions including the 493 from Ofsted and 460 from the Ministry of Defense.

    Including design jobs while the Environment Agency and Kew Gardens together shed 106 roles, the ordnance Survey which produces the UK’s official maps outsourced 53 roles. It had outsourced no UK staff but had outsourced a number of locally engaged jobs overseas. The FCO stated in a statement that the transfers occurred as a part of a major efficiency program which sought the most cost-effective method in providing support services at their overseas posts. 230 Mod stores and supplies roles had been outsourced, the ministry of defense stated, there are 110 from the Duke of York royal military school and a further 110 IT posts.

    To the private sector, the figures expose the drive by the ministers to put profit before the needs of people and their economy. The stark reality is jobs are being privatized and more work handed to the private sector. The government should be investing to help their economy to grow instead of cutting jobs and selling off jobs and services.The scale of the privatisation schemes from local authorities across the country which could affect thousands of jobs.

    In the affected regions, unison found 609 adverts fro outsourcing schemes that would affect current p0ublic sector workers which caused sufficient concern for them to notify members in the affected regions. Some 100 were prior information notices which are seen as a means of testing the market to see if the outsourcing is viable. The remainder were solid contracts tendering bids. In the current climate climate and it could come at the expense if future employees pay and conditions plus services themselves. The union said, a code aimed at protecting new workers from cuts in the conditions was scrapped in March 2011.

    To make profits, worrying trend of outsourcing has damaging implications for workers and tax payers. The promised savings are not delivered and workers see their terms and conditions cut as private companies strive to make profits. In outsourced companies, the ever-tighter margins in the current cash-trapped climate make this even more likely as does the government’s decision to scrap a vital protection to workers’ terms and conditions in outsourced companies. From the labor and activists for expanding the role of the private sector in healthcare provision. He said, this is just a taste of what is going to happen in the current financial year, given the cutbacks.
