An analysis of the spatial consequences of a UK work programme on spatial factors of job deprivation or opportunity increases.
|
|
The programme follows a quasi-marketized approach of rewarding employment-favourable results of transitions into employment and further sustained months in employment.
|
|
The author argues, however, that the non-spatial implementation of the policy leads to spatial outcomes.
|
|
Founded on the approach of social 'creaming' and 'parking' and applied to the spatial dimension,
|
|
the study shows that already job-deprived areas indeed experience further deprivations under the programme,
|
|
while non-deprived areas are correlated with positive impacts, thereby further deteriorating spatial inequality outcomes.
|
|
This occurs because of providers in the programme de-prioritizing the already deprived areas ('parking') in favour prioritizing wealthier areas for improved within-programme results.
