Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In-work benefit reforms seek to reduce poverty and promote employment among low-income families. Using evidence from similar policies in the USA and Canada, this paper reviews the likely impact of recent UK reforms. The focus is on employment and hours. In particular, the paper examines the effectiveness of the new Working Families Tax Credit in the UK in increasing employment among low-income families. It presents evidence suggesting modest increases in employment for single parents and workerless married couples with children, but with some offsetting reductions in employment in two-earner couples with young children.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
