Major changes are being implemented under the Programme of Advancement Through Health and Education (PATH) following a review that found it was proving too difficult for some Jamaicans who qualify to access the social safety net initiative.

The changes are being implemented to strengthen the programme while making the experience a far less frustrating and cumbersome undertaking.

“We found that getting on to PATH was difficult,” Minister of Labour and Social Security Pearnel Charles Jr said Tuesday during his contribution to the Sectoral Debate in the House of Representatives.
