Abstract: | A detailed evaluation is given of two Dutch wage subsidy schemes. Aspects covered are: deadweight, displacement, effects on unemployment and continuity of labour-force participation. Both aggregate data ( time-series and cross-section data) and individual survey data have been used to estimate the various effects. It is an elaboration of previous work done by commission of the Dutch Ministry of Social Affairs and Employment. The authors conclude that both schemes have played a role in the struggle against long-term unemployment. |
