Specific Employment, Skills & Social
Inclusion issues
• Unemployment
– Headline not bad, still real pockets of long term (age,
related to ill health/disability, youth issues)
• Skills
– Improving picture but still ‘top and tail’ issues (and
resulting GVA)
• Employment
– Still sectoral dependancies in ‘stagnant sectors’ and low
wage levels
• Living in Cornwall
– Higher costs, lower wages, high debt
Challenge?
Economically inactive who want a job
