Book Description
Over the past decade, European social policy has been oriented towards ways of integrating people into the labour market, moving citizens from welfare dependency to work. Recipients of social benefits are now generally required to participate in employment activation shemes. Many are also likely to need support from health, education, housing or other services. It is widely acknowledged that there is a great need for better coordination of welfare and employment policies at all levels: local, regional and national. This report presents an analysis of initiatives in all 15 EU Member States that aim to achieve better coordination of employment activation measures. It describes the role of the different agencies and actors involved in the planning, implementation and delivery of services. It shows the approach taken in some countries and localities towards better coordination through a range of new institutions and mechanisms. The report identifies measures in both policy and practice for improving coordination, including strategic as well as operational measures, and underlines the effectiveness of a comprehensive evaluation strategy.
