A Jobcentre has provoked outrage after it was found to be advertising for women to strip for web cams on Internet sex sites for £8 an hour.
According to the advertisement, the role involves "explicit dialogue" and "performing for clients' or customers' fantasies".
Astonishingly, the Department for Work and Pensions insisted that it is legally obliged to carry the advertisements.
However politicians and family campaigners lined up to criticise the policy last night - claiming it legitimises the sex industry and encourages women to work in it.
The controversial advertisement was posted in a Jobcentre Plus branch in Cardiff, south Wales and nationwide on the agency's website.
It offered an hourly wage for women to work 15 to 40 hours a week, between 9pm and midday. There is no pension.
Placed by a company called Cybtrader, the advertisement - which remains within legal boundaries - is unshamedly brazen when it comes to describing exactly what the role entails.
