EBF is committed to supporting the provision of quality work placements where learners are treated fairly, reflecting their individual needs in a safe environment. EBF conducts health, safety, welfare and suitability checks on all employers offering work experience. Learners cannot attend a placement until this risk assessment process has been carried out.
The team of business engagement advisors at EBF work with local employers and encourage them to offer work placement opportunities which are detailed on EBF’s work placement database.
