The United Kingdom Pathways to Work Program: A Path to Employment?
09/10/2008 | Requests *Summary
In the U.S., workers that experience disability onset are unlikely to receive return-to-work supports unless their disability is work-related or they have private disability coverage. The Pathways to Work program in the UK offers a range of supports that focus on preventing loss of work. After 18 months of evaluation, the data shows that it substantially improves outcomes. This brief offers lessons for U.S. policymakers that may pursue this strategy in the future.
