Unemployment

Question: What steps his Department is taking to reduce inactivity in the labour market.

Answer

DWP supports people across the country to move into and progress in work, and we are committed to reducing economic inactivity.

Over the last year, we have announced a wide range of additional measures building on our extensive employment support, breaking down barriers to work for those we know are more likely to experience economic inactivity.
