  • 1 Inside the 'Black Box': Ten Theses on Employment Services in Britain Ian
    1 Inside the ‘Black Box’: Ten theses on Employment Services in Britain Ian Greer, Lisa Schulte, and Graham Symon Paper presented at the University of Greenwich, June 2014 Summary This report presents initial findings on the UK from a project funded by the Hans-Boeckler-Foundation on the marketisation of employment services in the UK, Germany, and Denmark. We present findings from interviews with front-line staff, managers, claimants groups, and trade unionists, as well as publicly available statistics and reports. We convey what is distinctive about the UK by developing ten theses on the so-called ‘Black Box’, the UK’s highly centralised and privatized approach to organizing services. The Black Box is privatized but keeps marketisation within strict limits. The Black Box involves centralised and contracted-out government contracting. One result is the outsourcing of the DWP’s relations with the voluntary sector and local government to the private sector. The Black Box repackages the risk of policy failure as a financial risk, to be managed with an eye to profitability. The Black Box is dominated by a few ‘prime contractors’, for which scale and scope are advantages. This kind of contracting requires both access to capital and large-scale management capacity. Most organizations in the Black Box operate in a volatile market segment of subcontractors, where contract termination is more common for public and nonprofit providers than for for- profit providers. The Black Box matters for the character of services. It contains strong tendencies toward creaming and parking, despite minimum service requirements and differential pricing. Performance management by the prime contractors is tight and sophisticated.

  • A Micro-Econometric Evaluation of the UK Work Programme
    'I, Daniel Blake' revisited: A micro-econometric evaluation of the UK Work Programme Danula K. Gamage∗ Pedro S. Martinsy Queen Mary University of London Queen Mary University of London CRED & NovaSBE & IZA June 19, 2017 Work in Progress Abstract Although many countries are making greater use of public-private partnerships in em- ployment services, there are few detailed econometric analysis of their effects, in contrast to a large body of small-sample or qualitative case studies. This paper contributes to this literature by examining the case of the UK Work Programme, drawing on popula- tion data of all nearly two-million participants between 2011 and 2016. We also exploit the original structure of the programme to disentangle the impact of different provider and jobseeker characteristics from business cycle, cohort, regional and time-in-programme effects. Moreover, we consider both transitions to employment and transitions out of unemployment. Our main results indicate considerable differences in performance across providers and across jobseeker profiles. The latter results suggest that, by changing the incentive structure offered to providers, the government could obtain better results at the same cost.

  • Work Programme Supply Chains
    Work Programme Supply Chains The information contained in the table below reflects updates and changes to the Work Programme supply chains and is correct as at 30 September 2013. It is published in the interests of transparency. It is limited to those in supply chains delivering to prime providers as part of their tier 1 and 2 chains. Definitions of what these tiers incorporate vary from prime provider to prime provider. There are additional suppliers beyond these tiers who are largely to be called on to deliver one off, unique interventions in response to a particular participants needs and circumstances. The Department for Work and Pensions fully anticipate that supply chains will be dynamic, with scope to flex and evolve to reflect change within the labour market and participant needs. The Department intends to update this information at regular intervals (generally every 6 months) dependant on time and resources available. In addition to the Merlin standard, a robust process is in place for the Department to approve any supply chain changes and to ensure that the service on offer is not compromised or reduced. Comparison between the corrected March 2013 stock take and the September 2013 figures shows a net increase in the overall number of organisations in the supply chains across all sectors. The table below illustrates these changes Sector Number of organisations in the supply chain Private At 30 September 2013 - 367 compared to 351 at 31 March 2013 Public At 30 September 2013 - 128 compared to 124 at 30 March 2013 Voluntary or Community (VCS) At 30 September 2013 - 363 compared to 355 at 30 March 2013 Totals At 30 September 2013 - 858 organisations compared to 830 at March 2013.

    Work Programme Contents At a Glance – Work Programme Introduction Change of circumstances Mandatory referrals Optional referrals / mandatory participation Voluntary referrals / voluntary participation Claimant working for 26 weeks or more and treated as an early completer Work Programme completers Light Touch regime At a Glance – Work Programme The Work Programme gives up to two years of extra support to claimants who need more help in finding and staying in work. The Work Programme provider decides how best to support claimants referred to them, through a ‘black box' approach. The last date for referrals to the Work Programme was 31st March 2017. All claimants referred on or before this date will remain on the Work Programme for up to 104 weeks even if they move into work, unless they complete the Work Programme early. Claimants were referred to the Work Programme at different points in their Universal Credit claim. A referral could either be mandatory or voluntary. Some voluntary referrals resulted in the claimant having to participate on a mandatory basis. A change in a claimant’s circumstances can result in changes to the nature of participation on the Work Programme and to their agreed commitments. Additional support is provided to claimants in the Intensive Work Search regime when they complete the Work Programme. Introduction The Work Programme provides up to two years of extra support to claimants who need more help in finding and staying in work. The Work Programme providers decide how best to support claimants referred to them, through a ‘black box' approach. The claimant’s Commitment provided the foundation for referral to the Work Programme and claimants were issued with a new Commitment as part of the referral process.

Tribute was paid to the previous Minister Chris Grayling for the work he had done in paving the way for the delivery of the Work programme. PRaP validation A workshop took place in August between DWP and providers to look at the most pressing issues. Task and finish groups have been set up to focus on those areas requiring resolution and outcomes will be fed back to the forum as soon as resolutions have been put in place. DWP are to hold a workshop with providers in September to focus on performance, delivery models and changes to conditionality. The workshop will discuss the issue of JSA and ESA volumes and the expected increase as part of the mandating of ESA customers to the Work Programme. Discussions will be held between DWP and providers to ensure increased volumes will be accommodated effectively. A further meeting of the National Partnership Forum will be held in October to discuss updated business plans, flight paths and financial models. This additional forum will also provide the chair of the forum to provide feedback on his meetings with a selection of providers and his discussions with them on their views on performance issues.
