Abstract: | This article discusses the effectiveness of unemployment benefit sanctions in reducing unemployment duration. Using data from Switserland on benefit sanctions helps the authors to separate the effect of warning when a person is not complying with eligibility requirements from the actual enforcement of a benefit sanction. The authors find that both warning and enforcement have a positive effect on the exit rate out of unemployment. |
