Download or read book Activation or Workfare? Governance and the Neo-Liberal Convergence written by Ivar Lodemel and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2014-09-29 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last decade of the 20th century was marked by a shift in how welfare-states deal with those at the bottom of the income ladder. This shift involved the introduction/strengthening of work-obligations as a condition for receiving minimum income benefits - which, in some countries, was complemented by efforts to help recipients return to the labour market, namely through the investment in active labour market policies (ALMP). Based on case-studies of developments in the US and eight European nations (UK, Norway, Denmark, Netherlands, Germany, France, Portugal and the Czech Republic), this book argues that this first set of reforms was followed by a second wave of reforms that, whilst deepening the path towards the focus on work, brings important innovations- be it the tools used to help recipients back to the labour markets (ex., financial incentives) and in how activation policies are delivered (ex., integration of benefit and employment services). Looking at the array of developments introduced during this period, we discern two key trends. The first concerns the strengthening of the role of the market in the governance of activation, which is visible in the strengthening of the focus on work, or the marketisation of employment services. The second, concerns a move towards the individualisation of service delivery, visible in the expansion of the use of personal action plans or in efforts to streamline service delivery. Finally, we show that the onset of the sovereign debt crisis in Europe, has triggered a new wave of reforms. Whilst tentative only, our analysis points to a worrying trend of the curtailment or benefits (Portugal) and activation services (Netherlands, Czech Republic) to minimum income recipients and, in parallel, a further deepening of the focus on work-conditionality (UK and Norway).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For generations, women have experienced disadvantage in the social security system. This book analyses fresh empirical evidence which demonstrates the gendered impacts of the new conditionality regime within Universal Credit. It shows how the regime affects women's unpaid caring roles, their position in the paid labour market and their agency regarding engagement in unpaid care and paid work. Ultimately, it highlights the impacts on the position of low-income women in the UK’s social security system and society. Drawing on in-depth interviews with mothers, this book offers a compelling narrative and crucial policy recommendations to improve the gendered impact of Universal Credit and make the social citizenship framework in the UK more inclusive of women.

Download or read book Helping people from workless households into work written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Committee of Public Accounts and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2008-02-07 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The UK has an employment rate of 74.4%, with some 3 million workless households. In such households some 80% comprise of adults who are not seeking active work, with an estimated cost to the Exchequer of £12.7 billion in welfare benefits. The Government has a target employment level of 80%, which means finding work for 2 million people, including 1 million people on incapacity benefits and 0.3 million lone parents. This Committee of Public Accounts report (HCP 301, ISBN 9780215513465) examines the efforts to help people from workless households into work, and sets out a number of conclusions and recommendations, including: the Department of Work and Pensions introduced New Deal programmes to help people into work, the Committee believes that such programmes need more flexibility and earlier intervention with targeted support for those wanting to return to work; that the cost of getting people into work through the Department's employment programmes is higher than subsequent savings generated; that outreach services for workless people does not reflect the fact that 60% of workless households are concentrated in 40 districts across the UK; that recipients of incapacity benefit receive statutory sick pay for 6 months before being offered any support in returning to work, the Committee believes earlier support for people is essential for people claiming statutory sick pay; the Department could not confirm how many of the 2.9 million people who started a New Deal programme were still participating or what proportion of workless households chose not to work rather than being out of work due to personal circumstances and that the Department needs such information to inform future strategies. For the NAO report on this subject, see (HCP 609, session 2006-07, ISBN 9780102947328).

This book was released on 2007-07-19 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A workless household is defined as a household that includes at least one person of working-age (men aged 16-64 years and women aged 16-59 years) where no one in the household aged 16 or over is in employment. Currently, there are about three million households, containing 1.7 million children, who still have no-one in work. Evidence suggests that many adults in workless households would like to work, but that they face multiple barriers to work, such as low skills, disability, a lack of affordable and flexible childcare, or caring responsibilities and may have been on benefits for a long time. The NAO report examines the effectiveness of Department for Work and Pensions' employment programmes aimed at workless households in England, focusing on two programmes: the New Deal for Lone Parents and the New Deal for Partners. The report finds that these programmes are making a difference for those who take part, but more needs to be done to reach out to workless households and to increase awareness of the support available and help people to prepare for and find work.

Download or read book Working Futures? written by Alan Roulstone and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2005-11-16 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Working futures? looks at the current effectiveness and future scope for enabling policy in the field of disability and employment. By addressing the current strengths and weaknesses of disability and employment policy, the book asks Is the dichotomy of 'work for those who can and support for those who cannot' appropriate to the lives of disabled people? Does current and recent policy reduce or reinforce barriers to paid employment? What lessons from other welfare regimes can we draw on to further disabled people's working futures? The book is original in bringing together a wide range of policy insights to bear on the question of disabled people's working futures. It includes analyses of recent policy initiatives as diverse as the Disability Discrimination Act 1995, Draft Disability Bill, the benefits system, New Deal for Disabled People, job retention policy, comparative disability policy, the role of the voluntary sector and 'new policies for a new workplace'. Contributions from academics, NGOs, the OECD and the disabled peoples' movement bring multiple theoretical, professional and user perspectives to the debates at the heart of the book.
