Managing your labour market in a recession

The third Great Brief focuses upon identifying the challenges local labour markets are facing in a period of recession. It seeks to detail: the Government’s current welfare reform policy and specifically interventions to tackle worklessness; a framework of approaches for tackling labour market challenges in a recession; and advice as to how local authorities and partners in Yorkshire and Humber can effectively manage labour markets in a recession.
