| Tiivistelmä: | Long-term unemployed are less likely to leave unemployment than short-term unemployed. Two possible explanations have been offered. /1/ People may differ in their chances of employment, so that low-probability people are disproportionately represented among the long-term unemployed. /2/ Long duration may actually reduce a given individual's probability of leaving unemployment. Investigating the available data it is concluded in the study that the overall fall in exit rates from unemployment can be explained by the combined effect of /1/ a fall in the ratio of vacancies to unemployed, and /2/ a higher proportion of the unemployed being long-term unemployed, and hence being demoralized and stigmatized in the eyes of employers. |
