The Chance to Work in Britain: Matching Unemployed People to Vacancies in Good Times and Bad
Taulbut M. and Robinson M. The chance to work in Britain: matching unemployed people to vacancies in good times and bad, Regional Studies. Giving people the chance to work has been a key justification for welfare reform in Britain over the last 15 years. The approach is underpinned by the belief that there are sufficient vacancies available to absorb the unemployed into the labour market. This paper tests this proposition by using the most comprehensive estimates of vacancies available (from the Employers Skills Surveys) and two measures (narrow and broad) of unemployment, by occupation, geography and time period. It also questions whether current approaches to worklessness in Britain are adequate to the task, given the scale of the challenge.
