Multiple Disadvantage in Employment
註釋We know a great deal about the difficulties faced by particular groups on the search for work, whether the groups are defined by age, sex, ethnicity, location or whatever. However, until now, the effects of multiplicity itself have not been analysed in any detail. This report provides a systematic analysis of the effects of combinations of disadvantages on the labour market prospects of men and women in Britain. Using data from the Labour Force Survey, it considers disadvantages associated with: age, sex, family structure, educational qualifications, disability, ethnic group, housing tenure and local unemployment levels. Rather than look at the effects of each of these problems in isolation, this report documents the interactions between them to show the cumulative effects of multiple disadvantage.
