Welfare That Works for Women?: Mothers’ Experiences of the Conditionality within Universal Credit

Kate Andersen, "Welfare That Works for Women?: Mothers’ Experiences of the Conditionality within Universal Credit "
English | ISBN: 1447366387 | 2023 | 202 pages | PDF | 8 MB

For generations, women have experienced disadvantage in the social security system. This book analyses fresh empirical evidence which demonstrates the gendered impacts of the new conditionality regime within Universal Credit. It shows how the regime affects women's unpaid caring roles, their position in the paid labour market and their agency regarding engagement in unpaid care and paid work. Ultimately, it highlights the impacts on the position of low-income women in the UK’s social security system and society. Drawing on in-depth interviews with mothers, this book offers a compelling narrative and crucial policy recommendations to improve the gendered impact of Universal Credit and make the social citizenship framework in the UK more inclusive of women.
