积极的劳动力市场政策已发展成为关键的社会政策工具，旨在使失业者和其他处境不利群体获得可持续就业。然而，人们对雇主参与这些举措的动力知之甚少。本文提供了一个细致入微的帐户ALMP的需求方的社会经济方面，通过调查雇主嵌入更广泛的社交网络创建的雇主协会和雇员集体的声音，使雇主参与ALMP的机制。借鉴在英国（UK）和丹麦的雇主的原始调查，我们发现，雇主嵌入在这样的社交网络的程度是积极的雇主参与在英国，但不是在丹麦，在那里的效果是间接的，通过集体谈判调解。雇主网络关系和员工集体声音的影响肯定了ALMP研究中网络关系和机构之间的相互作用进行更综合分析的重要性。
Active labour market policies (ALMPs) have evolved as pivotal social policy instruments designed to place the unemployed and other disadvantaged groups in sustainable employment. Yet, little is known about what drives employer participation in such initiatives. This article provides a nuanced account of the socio-economic aspects of the demand-side of ALMPs, by investigating employer embeddedness in wider social networks created by employer associations and employee collective voice as enabling mechanisms for employer participation in ALMPs. Drawing on an original survey of employers in the United Kingdom (UK) and Denmark, we found that the extent of employer embeddedness in such social networks is positively associated with employer participation in the UK but not in Denmark, where the effect was indirect and mediated through collective bargaining. The effects of employer network ties and employee collective voice affirm the importance of a more integrated analysis of the interactions between network ties and institutions in ALMP research.
