Towards a common goal

摘要

Worklessness has a scarring effect on individuals and communities. For the average person facing deprivation and inequality due to the simple fact of their being born in the 'wrong' part of a community, the fallout can reach further than even the span of their own lives. Worklessness today limits the life chances of future generations for years to come and can be especially pernicious in areas where another factor - the presence of multiple, serious health issues - also impacts on whole families, and even neighbourhoods.
