Product Description
Synopsis
In 2003 the government is due to launch a major new strand of welfare strategy by introducing an employment tax credit for low-income people in work. This follows the growth of support for low-income workers over the past 30 years, which so far however has aimed mainly at helping children, but the new credit will be available to childless families too. This publication argues that the state is taking a huge step by taking on responsibility for maintaining the income of people in work, rather than leaving it to employers through the pay packet. Part polemical, part analytical, the report says that if we go down this route we must do so with our eyes open - and recognise risks such as entrenching low pay. The authors aim to tease out the multiple implications for the labour market, the rest of the tax and benefits system, and different types of individual.
