本文探讨了2008-9年经济衰退对英国培训活动的影响。在国际方面，英国被认为有一个放松管制的培训市场，对不断变化的经济状况很敏感。然而，国家数据集和定性访谈表明，尽管经济衰退严重，但雇主削减了少量培训支出，对培训参与率的影响微乎其微。相反的放松管制的培训市场的初始假设，文章表明，在英国的雇主没有一个完全自由的手，市场干预和业务要求的结合迫使他们中的大多数人，尽管经济衰退，以维持培训。这些制约因素包括：遵守法律的要求、满足业务需要和满足客户需求。然而，经济衰退促使许多雇主寻找保持培训覆盖面的方法来履行这些义务，或者正如一些受访者所说，“更聪明地培训”。
This article examines the impact of the 2008–9 recession on training activity in the UK. In international terms, the UK is assumed to have a deregulated training market which is sensitive to changing economic conditions. However, national datasets and qualitative interviews suggest that, despite the severity of the recession, employers cut training expenditures by a small amount and the impact on training participation rates was minimal. Contrary to the starting assumption of a deregulated training market, the article shows that employers in the UK do not have a completely free hand and that a combination of market intervention and business requirements obliged most of them to sustain training despite the recession. These constraints included: compliance with legal requirements, meeting operational needs and satisfying customer demands. However, the recession prompted many employers to find ways of maintaining training coverage to meet these obligations, or as several respondents put it, ‘train smarter’.
