James Caan takes a trip out of the Dragons' Den to look at the job market as unemployment figures in the UK reach their worst levels in decades.

Unemployment could reach over three million by 2011. In Scotland, the jobless number could almost double in the next 12 months. It is a problem that is affecting every sector from finance to manufacturing. Some employers will have to cut 75 per cent of their staff. Is there any cause for optimism?

In this Money Programme investigation, Caan, who made his fortune in recruitment, gives practical advice to those who have just been made unemployed and asks what individuals, businesses and the government can do to ease the pain of cutting jobs.
