Warwick Institute for Employment Research
The Warwick Institute for Employment Research was established by the University of Warwick in 1981. The IER is one of Europe's leading centres for research in the labour market field.
Its work includes comparative European research on employment and training as well as that focusing on the UK at national, regional and local level.
The IER is concerned principally with the development of scientific knowledge about the socioeconomic system rather than with the evolution and application of one particular discipline.
