Ministers 'need to support flexible labour market'

Ministers should take steps to maintain flexibility in the country's labour market, according to an expert from the British Chambers of Commerce.

Mr Kern went on to say that the country's rate of unemployment may also be impacted by interest rate rises in the near future.

The number of jobless people in the UK could grow if such rates are pushed up too early, the commentator suggested, which might concern those in sales recruitment roles.
