Abstract

Summary:

Administrative data from the UK's main welfare-to-work program for unemployed and disadvantaged youth is analysed to identify differences in practice between local delivery areas, and to assess their effects on off-welfare outcomes. The findings reveal important similarities in the nature of effective -work first' practices between this program and some US programs, despite large differences in the welfare context and systems.
