A new ethical jobs site aims to bridge the gap between mainstream career paths and the ethical sector.
March 10, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
In a bid to become the main comprehensive website for people searching for UK jobs with an ethical dimension, ethical-jobs.com was launched on the internet on March 1st. Working to promote ethical careers, the site advertises jobs across all sectors including NGO’s, Charities, Local Councils and green businesses as well as ethical positions within the corporate sector. Advertisers are mainly either UK owned or offer UK based positions that are seen to be working towards a better world. Ethical Jobs offers offer all the facilities of a database driven site allowing jobseekers to search using a wide variety of criteria to find the most appropriate position. Plans to provide a text alert service are also underway which means that users can choose to receive text messages to their mobiles as soon as a position that meets their requirements is posted.
For employers, the site offers a low-cost recruitment solution that will enhance any recruitment campaign. It promotes vacancies to people with a conscience who are actively seeking jobs or careers that contribute to people, communities, or the environment.
‘There is a massive range of opportunity in the ethical jobs market, from solar engineering to sustainable development and care work. Choosing an ethical career does not mean sacrificing a well paid and exciting position in the corporate sector for an underpaid, under appreciated one. It means doing something that serves our practical needs, our personal values and our interests in a way that positively impacts upon the world.
Until now, there has been no easy way for people who use the internet as a primary source of job seeking to find a comprehensive selection of jobs that have an ethical dimension. We aim to provide this by moving away from the industry-specific niche-market business model.’ said Jason Elliott, Founder.
