Coping with the downturn
These are difficult times for working people and their families. Many face the prospect of redundancy and many more are uncertain about the impact of the ongoing financial crisis on their jobs and livelihoods. Even those whose jobs are relatively secure are worried about rising living costs – particularly those on low incomes.
Debt is also becoming an increasing problem, with the average household owing £9,500 (excluding mortgages). Worksmart have put together a collection of advice, with the help of Citizens Advice, to give practical information about how best to weather the current economic storm.
