This chapter examines the impact of labour market reforms on the structure of employment and unemployment in Britain. It argues that although the British experience is one of growing employment, this does not, in itself, solve the problem of social exclusion. The British labour market does not have a better record on employment or unemployment compared to other EU countries.
