This book aims to tackle the issues that are central to
understanding and addressing one of the most important employment
policy problems facing governments in the UK and beyond: the high
number of people of working age claiming 'disability' or
'incapacity' benefits. Gathering evidence from leading UK scholars,
alongside comparative contributions on Sweden, Germany, New Zealand
and the Netherlands, the book considers a number of questions
including, how do health problems and other barriers work to
combine to limit opportunities for labour market participation
among claimants of IBs?; How do different local and regional
economic conditions shape these individuals' opportunities and
experiences of labour market exclusion?; What processes lead to
transitions onto IBs and what could be done to retain people with
health problems in employment?; How appropriate are the rationale,
content and governance of active labour market policies that seek
to promote transitions from IBs into work?; and what works in
helping people claiming IBs to cope with health problems and/or
make progress towards work?
