JOB centres in Brighouse and Skipton are among 151 that will take part in the roll-out of Universal Credit next year.
The new benefit will come into effect across parts of Britain from next February.
Work and Pensions Secretary Iain Duncan Smith said: "We’ve already seen remarkable success, with Universal Credit claimants moving into work faster and staying in work longer. As part of our long-term economic plan, people in Yorkshire will have the financial security of knowing that if they work more they will earn more.
"By Spring 2015 Universal Credit will be in a third of the country’s Jobcentres as part of the wholesale transformation of the welfare state - providing the country with an economic benefit of £7 billion each year when rolled out."
Universal Credit will initially be open to single jobseekers. People will get one monthly payment instead of several fortnightly ones.
