Abstract
Since its launch the Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP) has come to be regarded as the flagship employment project of the government as it sets out to provide temporary job opportunities, supported by training, to enable job seekers to access more permanent employment. What has the Programme achieved in the period since its launch in 2004? David Hemson looks at the findings of a mid-term review of the Programme.-
