Workfare

Common card · No. 355148

Workfare refers to government programs under which welfare recipients are required to take public-service jobs or to participate in employment training. Many countries worldwide have adopted workfare (sometimes implemented as "work-first" policies) to reduce poverty among able-bodied adults; however, their approaches to execution vary. The United States and United Kingdom are among the countries using workfare programs, albeit with different models.
