Sir Keir Starmer will establish its industrial strategy on Monday while seeking to start the stuttering economy and reduce the unit of the United Kingdom in foreign workers.
The plan of a decade for the “national renewal” will include £ 275 million in investment of skills to train the British to make jobs in growth industries that could otherwise require imported labor.
The strategy will include specific funds to train people for work in defense, engineering, digital and construction roles.
Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds said the strategy “will help transform our skill system to end excessive dependence on foreign labor and ensure that British workers can ensure good and well -paid jobs in the industries of tomorrow and boost growth and investment throughout the country.”
Monday's industrial strategy will be followed later in the week by a new commercial plan for the United Kingdom the best connected country in the world to do business.
The Prime Minister will launch the industrial strategy in the hope that he will help in his mission of offering economic growth.
The economy was reduced by 0.3% in April, the highest monthly contraction in the Gross Domestic Product for a year and a half, since companies felt the impact of global uncertainty caused by donald tariffs and internal pressure of Donald Trump as a result of increases to the contributions of the national insurance of the companies.
Around one in seven young people are not in education or employment, and the number of people who take learning have fallen almost a fifth between 2016/17 and 2023/24.
The government expects the growth sectors identified in the industrial strategy to create 1.1 million new jobs by 2035.
The skills package includes the capital investment of a fund of £ 200 million that will support new facilities, including the “universities of technical excellence” that provides specialized training for local industries.
Total financing is expected to train thousands of more workers by 2029, including computer programmers, IT technicians, electrical and civil engineers.
The Secretary of Education, Bridget Phillipson, said: “The skills run correctly through the heart of this industrial strategy because they are key to breaking the link between background and success for young people and offering prosperity for our country.”
Stephen Phipson, the head of the manufacturers organization makes the United Kingdom welcomed the skills announcement.
“We hope to work with the government to fix the manufacturing skills gap, which has been the Achilles heel of the sector for decades,” he said.
Other elements of the plan are expected to include measures to help reduce energy costs for industries that have complained that they are forced to compete with rivals abroad that face lower invoices.
Meanwhile, some £ 380 million will be spent on a variety of projects aimed at doubling private investment in creative industries.
The Secretary of Business of the Shadow, Andrew Griffith, welcomed the investment in skills, but said that “the government is stepping on the accelerator and the brake at the same time” when walking through the national insurance for companies and introducing additional employment rights that could increase costs.
“This inherent contradiction cannot be a feasible or serious strategy, and will hold the government responsible,” he said.
