Description

This series covers a range of topical concerns to guide policy-makers and managers in local government and provide stimulating resources and ideas for anyone concerned with the development of local economic and social strategy. Based on recent research, this text examines the key issues affecting the local labour market that local authorities need to address. It offers an examination of the nature of problems and an analysis of the range of policies and practices that can be pursued to alleviate them. Coverage includes the promotion of employment opportunities; equal opportunities; women's and racial issues; the position of the local authority as an employer; the promotion of training and partnerships with local industry and the voluntary sector; and the development of TECs. It also includes lessons drawn from the US and Europe.
