Abstract
Active labour market policy (ALMP) has developed into a widely used and seemingly embedded approach to addressing worklessness, both in the UK and internationally. But the future of UK ALMP looks far from certain. Some recent developments suggest demise and diminution. But at the same time there is also evidence of more positive points, including increasing recognition of the importance of employer involvement and activity a t local level. Possible future trajectories are considered in the light of emerging developments, and two potential scenarios for future UK ALMP are posited: ‘less support, more sticks’ and an ‘active local labour markets approach’.
