During the last twenty years vast numbers of men of working age have moved completely out of the labour market into 'early retirement' or 'long-term sickness' and to take on new roles in the household. These trends stand in stark contrast to rising labour market participation among women. Based on an unprecedented range of new research on the detached male workforce in the UK, and located within an international context, the book offers a detailed exploration of the varied financial, family and health circumstances 'detached men' are living in. It also challenges conventional assumptions about the boundaries between unemployment, sickness and retirement and the true health of the labour market. Work to Welfare represents an important contribution to debates about the labour market and benefit systems and will be of interest to readers and practitioners in social policy, economics and geography. 606 $aMen$xEmployment$zGreat Britain 606 $aUnemployment$zGreat Britain 606 $aWork$xPsychological aspects 606 $aLabor policy$zGreat Britain 606 $aPublic welfare$zGreat Britain 615 0$aMen$xEmployment 615 0$aUnemployment 615 0$aWork$xPsychological aspects. 615 0$aLabor policy 615 0$aPublic welfare 676 $a331.12/0941 700 $aAlcock$b Peter$f1951-$0147490 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450512003321 996 $aWork to welfare$91905613 997 $aUNINA
