abstract: 'Successive Australian Governments have sought to improve the capacity of
|
|
|
|
the employment service system to build jobseekers'' skills and
|
|
|
|
capabilities and to promote transitions from income support to paid
|
|
|
|
work. Yet despite these efforts, many jobseekers experience only short
|
|
|
|
periods of employment, moving repeatedly between joblessness and
|
|
|
|
positions with low skill requirements, low pay and few or fluctuating
|
|
|
|
hours. This article explores ways to achieve more sustained transitions
|
|
|
|
from welfare to work for disadvantaged jobseekers. We draw on data from
|
|
|
|
a qualitative study of employment service providers who assisted
|
|
|
|
jobseekers into work and the managers in the organisations that employed
|
|
|
|
them. These informants'' perspectives underline the importance of
|
|
|
|
improving the quality of jobs that require low levels of skills and
|
|
|
|
experience and demonstrate some ways employers and employment services
|
|
|
|
can better work together and provide more enduring and effective forms
|
|
|
|
of support.'
