• W2894617897 abstract "Unemployment is a persistent global problem which has attracted considerable interest in recent years from governments, policy makers, researchers and practitioners.During the last three decades or so, there has been a significant shift in international labour market policy (and its implementation) toward activation and active labour market policy to help the unemployed progress more quickly into employment. In Ireland, policy changes in this direction have been more recent, with the implementation of the new Pathways to Work policy (PTWP). However, long-term unemployment (LTU) remains high and more work is needed, both nationally and internationally, to identify how best to intervene effectively and appropriately with this vulnerable group. This research comprised three separate,inter-related studies,designed to: (1) critically examine the implementation and perceived effectiveness of the PTWP in Ireland; (2) evaluate the effectiveness of a new high support intervention (when compared to services as usual)in terms of itsimpact on psychological well-being and related psychosocial factors which influence employability; and (3) conduct a small-scale process evaluation to explore the implementation aspects and mechanisms underpinning the new intervention and to draw some comparisons, in parallel, with routine PTWP services. The three studies were conducted within a mixed-methods pragmatic framework and comprised: (1) an exploration of the perceptions and views of the PTWP amongst a range of stakeholders (N=21) using semi-structured interviews and analysed using a constructivist grounded theory approach; (2) a single-centre randomised controlled trial (RCT) with a sample of LTU clients (N=149) who were followed up immediately post-intervention and six monthslater to assess changes in primary and secondary outcomesand (3) a process evaluation using both semi-structured interviews (n = 6) and focus groups (n = 9) and analysed using standard thematic analysis. Study One identified three overarching themes relevant to the effectiveness of the PTWP including: (1) ‘the reform agenda’; (2) ‘depersonalisation’: and, (3) the missing ‘how to’ of implementation. Study Two indicated high levels of psychological distress at baseline, as well as findings to suggest thatboth the intervention and services-as-usual had led to improvements over time in well-being and employability, albeit with a number of more positive effects observed amongst the men who took part in the intervention. The process evaluation revealed three important themes with regard to implementation aspects of the intervention including the important role of: (1) the practitioner-client relationship; (2) the service setting; and (3) the skill sets of practitioners. This study is the first to examine the PTWP with regard to psychological well-being and employability outcomes for the LTU. It providessupport for detailing the ‘how to’ of implementation, emphasising the potential added value of well-designed interventions both in terms of mental health and well-being outcomes, and career progression. The findings suggest that practitioners, employment services, policy makers and other stakeholders, should recognise the important role of careful, appropriate, and quality-focused ALMP interventions in terms of promoting increased and sustainable employability, positive mental-health, and improved quality of life for our most vulnerable and disadvantaged job seekers." @default.
