We have no detailed information on the wages, working hours, working environment and other employees' benefits pertaining to both the current and previous jobs of these registrants.

חד

Since the wages of registrants who are placed through JMP are categorised into broad salary groups--$4,001 - $5,000, $5,001 - 6,000, $6,001 - 7,000 and so on, the median wages in respect of individual placements are not available. Therefore, no direct comparison between the median wages of JMP job placements with those of the respective trades in the labour market can be made.
