The assessment of swine welfare requires feasible, reliable, and reasonable indicators. On-farm evaluation of pig welfare can provide valuable information to veterinarians and farmers. However, such protocols can result expensive and time-consuming. With this regard, an interest in the appraisal of swine welfare at abattoir has grown over the recent years. In particular, the use of certain lesions collected directly from slaughtered animals to determine the welfare status of pigs has been evaluated by several authors. In the present review, the different methods developed to score lesions collected directly from the body and the viscera of animals slaughtered in European abattoirs (“abattoir-based measures”) are presented. The text specifically focuses on the methods currently available in the literature for the scoring of body, pluck and gastric lesions during post-mortem activities. Moreover, the strengths and weaknesses of abattoir-based measures schemes are discussed. To conclude, the future perspectives of the assessment of pig welfare at the slaughterhouse are described, appealing for a benchmarking system that can be systematically used by veterinarians and other professional figures involved in the process.

Zusammenfassung Mit dem Teilhabechancengesetz hat der Gesetzgeber 2019 auf das Problem einer persistierenden Langzeitarbeitslosigkeit reagiert. Konstruiert in Zeiten der Prosperität, haben sich die strukturellen Rahmenbedingungen im Zuge der Corona-Pandemie auch für die Förderung arbeitsmarktferner Langleistungsbeziehender schlagartig verändert. Der Beitrag nimmt eine Zwischenbilanz des so­zialen Arbeitsmarktes in Zeiten der Corona-Krise vor. Auf Basis bundesweiter Daten zur Entwicklung der Förderfälle sowie einer vertiefenden Beleuchtung der regionalen Struktur des sozialen Arbeitsmarktes im Ruhrgebiet werden aktuelle Befunde präsentiert sowie Perspektiven dieses arbeitsmarkt- und sozialpolitischen Instruments umrissen. Neben der Exklusivität der Förderstruktur werden eine drohende Legitimationskrise, finanzielle Umschichtungen in Richtung pandemiebedingter Arbeitsmarktfolgen sowie eine abgeschwächte Aufstiegsmobilität in ungeförderte Beschäftigung als zentrale Herausforderungen diskutiert. Abstract: The Subsidised Labour Market in Times of the Corona-Crisis: An Outdated Instrument or Model for the Future? The commencement of the ‘Teilhabechancengesetz’ in 2019 was a reaction to the persistent long term unemployment on the German labour market. Constructed in times of prosperity, the structural conditions surrounding the promotion of the long term unemployed have changed abruptly in view of the coronavirus pandemic. This article reviews the subsidised labour market one and a half years after the commencement. Based on national data on the development of subsidised employment as well as regional data on the structure of the subsidised labour market in the German Ruhr area, current findings are being presented and future perspectives discussed, concentrating on an exclusive structure of promotion, problems of legitimation, possible financial shortages and decreasing mobility into non-subsidised employment as key challenges.
