If you're unhappy in your present job or are facing redundancy you may want to change your craft or industry. How easy is it to learn new skills?
Introduced by Bob Houlton

What future has the British Steel Industry? The Government will invest £3,000-million over the next ten years to modernise old, inefficient plants and as a result 50,000 jobs will disappear.
The investment is a gamble - a gamble that 35 million tons of British steel will be needed in 1980. If it isn't, more losses and more redundancies will follow.
What do we want from steel - efficiency or employment?
Presented by Brian Widlake
