Former Scottish Electrical Group (SEG) employees have attended a recruitment event organised by the Scottish Government.

The Dundee electrical company went into liquidation in August, with 99 people made redundant as a result.

Partnership Action for Continuing Employment (PACE) held the event, at which companies could advertise vacancies and speak to potential employees.

PACE is the Scottish Government's national strategic partnership framework for responding to redundancy situations.

More than 30 people attended the event on Thursday with 12 employers offering positions and more than 20 vacancies available at companies who could not attend.

PACE chairwoman Rose-Marie Stewart said:"Over 30 people came along to today's event and we had 12 employers with job opportunities.

"One company, FSE limited, recruited three modern apprentices and one adult trainee at the event.

"We believe another seven of the modern apprentices from Scottish Electrical Group have already been recruited by other companies, which is very good news."

She added: "I must stress that the help from our PACE team is not only available today. We are offering additional workshops for people who have been affected by the closure and support is always available on the PACE helpline on 0800 917 8000."
