abstract: 'In many ways, contemporary labour market changes in the UK, the problems
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and their proposed solutions encapsulate many aspects of Ulrich Beck''s
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
risk society. Inequality and insecurity are increasing, leading to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
one-third of children growing up in poverty. Current labour market,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
income support and childcare policies tend to reinforce rather than
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
challenge adverse aspects of the new partial and insecure forms of work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Remedial policies reflect individualization and are centred on the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
belief that the route out of poverty lies with `making work pay'' and by
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
increasing the employability of those not in work. New forms of flexible
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
working potentially provide the material foundation for a more equal
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
distribution of paid and unpaid work, but to be effective need to be
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
situated within a framework which prioritizes greater equality,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
including gender equity, in paid and unpaid work.'
