Job Training, Individual Opportunity and Low Pay

In: Improving Incentives for the Low-Paid

Author

  • Paul Ryan

Abstract

The low-paid are arguably the most disadvantaged segment of the British labour force in terms of training and self-development. Amongst employees, they receive the least training and enjoy the least opportunity to use skill in their work. They are also worse placed than the long-term unemployed and the early school-leavers upon whom public training subsidies have increasingly become focussed.
