| Sammanfattning: | <p>Jobseekers Agreements are just one type of behaviour management contract. Other contemporary examples include home-school agreements, youth offender contracts, and parenting contracts.</p> <p>The prevailing economic recession is leading to widening social inequalities and increasing the potential for unfairness in the formation and implementation of welfare contracts.</p> <p>If the state cannot guarantee fairness and reciprocity in Jobseeker’s Agreements, together with minimum levels of social inclusion and equality, the pretence of ‘contract’ in current welfare policy should be abandoned.</p> |
