Description
By examining welfare leavers between April 1998 and March 2010, we find that many (61.2%) leavers did not return to welfare within two years of their exit. However, 13.8% of leavers returned to welfare between 31 and 90 days of exit, while one-quarter (25.0%) returned within 4 to 24 months of exit. This report examines the characteristics of these cases as well as their employment and welfare use patterns.
