As job market becomes tighter with income distribution getting worse, the public’s demand for welfare has taken on new patterns. Faced with the demand for new welfare needs, the discussion and debate on institutionalization of the welfare state have become proportionately more fierce. At least the discussion so far seems to converge on two points: first, such welfare needs should be embraced if for nothing else than to ensure sustainable growth; second, the welfare regime should be employment-friendly to ensure sustainability of any welfare that is to be adopted. But despite the convergence of views at the high level, detailed discussion on how to design sustainable welfare programs often leads to no conclusion.
Under the recognition that the necessary condition for sustainable welfare is to integrate employment service and welfare service, or enable customized linkage between employment service and welfare service at the delivery level, this study has been planned to seek the optimal direction and modality and create the blueprint for effective connection between employment service and welfare service. In doing so, it is hoped to help upgrade the general discussion on workfare.
