Evaluation der Arbeitsmarktpolitik
Arbeitsmarktpolitik soll neben der Wirtschafts- und Strukturpolitik sowie der Arbeitszeit- und Lohnpolitik einen Beitrag zur Bewältigung der Arbeitslosigkeit leisten. Aber ist sie dabei auch erfolgreich und stehen die eingebrachten Mittel in einem angemessenen Verhältnis zu den erzielten Wirkungen? Die Evaluationsforschung geht der Frage nach den Beschäftigungseffekten und den sozialpolitischen Wirkungen auf individueller und gesamtwirtschaftlicher Ebene nach. Das Dossier bietet weiterführende Informationen zu Evaluationsmethoden und den Wirkungen von einzelnen Maßnahmen für verschiedene Zielgruppen.

ALMP Training Programmes Implemented During the 2020COVID ‐19 Pandemic to Programmes in 2016 and 2019. In: Social Policy and Administration. DOI:10.1111/spol.13115Abstract
"This article focuses on the impacts of training programs on leaving unemployment during the COVID-19 period. The main issue addressed is uncertainty about the effects of ALMP programs during the pandemic. We implemented the matched-pairs quasi-experimental design on administrative data from the 2016, 2019, and 2020 program implementation, counting 21,990 participants and controls. We found lower hazard rates of employment entry in absolute terms in the COVID-19 period than before, but training programs had greater positive impacts due to the economic cycle effect prevailing over implementation difficulties. The main conclusion is that the effects of training programs during the COVID pandemic were sound because the situation among the disadvantaged worsened proportionally; on average, it took them much longer to find work than in the previous periods."

Effects of parental job loss on psychotropic drug use in children: Long-term effects, timing, and cumulative exposure (2024)
Zitatform
Högberg, Björn & Anna Baranowska-Rataj (2024): Effects of parental job loss on psychotropic drug use in children: Long-term effects, timing, and cumulative exposure. In: Advances in life course research, Jg. 60. DOI:10.1016/j.alcr.2024.100607
Abstract
"Intra-family crossover effects triggered by job losses have received growing attention across scientific disciplines, but existing research has reached discrepant conclusions concerning if, and if so how, parental job losses affect child mental health. Drawing on sociological models of stress and life course epidemiology, we ask if parental job losses have long-term effects on child mental health, and if these effects are conditional on the timing of, or the cumulative exposure to, job losses. We use intergenerationally linked Swedish register data combined with entropy balance and structural nested mean models for the analyses. The data allow us to track 400,000 children over 14 years and thereby test different life-course models of cross-over effects. We identify involuntary job losses using information on workplace closures, thus reducing the risk of confounding. Results show that paternal but not maternal job loss significantly increases the risk of psychotropic drug use among children, that the average effects are modest in size (less than 4% in relative terms), that they may persist for up to five years, and that they are driven by children aged 6–10 years. Moreover, cumulative exposure to multiple job losses are more harmful than zero or one job loss." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku, © 2024 Elsevier) ((en))

More money, more effect? Employment effects of job search programs in Veneto (2024)

Junquera, Álvaro F. (2024): More money, more effect? Employment effects of job search programs in Veneto. (SocArXiv papers), 26 S. DOI:10.31235/osf.io/rjshu
Abstract
"Despite being widely regarded as effective labor market interventions, the impact of job search programs on employment remains contested. Recent research challenges the assumption that the intensity of such programs is directly related with its effectiveness. We evaluate the effects of two treatments of an Italian active labour market program called Assegno per il Lavoro. Each intervention is made up of a voucher to fund job search assistance and a performance-based payment related to job search brokerage. Participants are assigned to a certain group with a certain treatment endowment that is increasing in function of a scoring variable. Leveraging this design, we applied a regression discontinuity analysis to estimate effects on the employment quantity and on the employment quality. We found null effects on the average of worked days for the two treatment comparisons, with transient small effects during the first year for the high endowment. Significant increases of approximately one month were observed at the median of the distribution for certain semesters, but later the effects fade away. This is the first paper studying the effect of the intensity of job search actions on employment in a European context. The main policy implication is a shift from a focus on intensity to a focus on other design elements." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Which Active Labor Market Policies Work for Male Refugees? Evidence from Germany (2024)

Kasrin, Zein & Stefan Tübbicke (2024): Which Active Labor Market Policies Work for Male Refugees? Evidence from Germany. In: Journal of Social Policy, Jg. 53, H. 3, S. 727-750., 2022-05-24. DOI:10.1017/S0047279422000605
Abstract
"In this paper, we estimate the causal effects of a set of active labor market programs for male unemployed refugees on welfare who entered Germany between, 2013 and September, 2016. Using rich administrative data, we employ covariate balancing propensity scores combined with inverse probability weighting to estimate effects up to 33 months after the start of treatment. Our results show that relatively short-term training in the form of Schemes by Providers and In-Firm Training, as well as longer-term Further Vocational Training programs have a positive impact on both the employment chances as well as labor market earnings of refugees in the medium run. So-called “One Euro Jobs”, a public employment program, does not yield positive effects on employment or earnings. Sensitivity analyses confirm that our results are unlikely to be driven by unobserved confounding." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku, © Cambridge University Press) ((en))

Help or harm? Examining the effects of active labour market programmes on young adults' employment quality and the role of social origin (2024)

Knize, Veronika & Markus Wolf (2024): Help or harm? Examining the effects of active labour market programmes on young adults' employment quality and the role of social origin. In: Journal of European Social Policy, Jg. 34, H. 5, S. 573-589., 2024-02-29. DOI:10.1177/09589287241268442
Abstract
"Active labor market programs (ALMPs) should help young adults who collect welfare benefits ‘get back on track’. Despite the recent proliferation of research on ALMPs, only scant attention has been paid to their employment quality effects. Aiming to fill this gap, this article evaluates the long-term effects of German ALMPs on young adults’ employment quality. We measure employment quality with two indicators: one on whether someone has a job with earnings below the low wage threshold and the other on whether they have a job with earnings above the low wage threshold. These measures help us assess whether ALMPs prevent young adults from being at risk of poverty again. In addition, we study whether ALMP effects vary by social origin. We distinguish young adults by whether their families collected benefits when they were adolescents, as a marker for disadvantaged social origin. We analyze in-firm training and one-euro jobs as examples for enabling and workfare programs, which exist across other welfare states as well. Empirically, we apply an entropy balancing approach to a self-drawn sample from registry data to analyze ALMP treatment effects. Results show that in-firm training enhances young adults’ employment quality in the long run. The effects tend to be lower for those from disadvantaged families though, indicating that disadvantages embedded in social origin remain. The workfare program harms participants’ employment quality, with those less disadvantaged suffering the greatest damage. Overall, our research provides evidence that in-firm training effectively enables young adults to find a job of higher quality, addressing their risk of social exclusion and proving useful in promoting upward social mobility. Nonetheless, the article also raises urgent issues concerning how the needs of those most vulnerable can be addressed by social policy." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku, © SAGE) ((en))

Marzi, Marta Serena Liliana, Alessandra Marini, Ludovica Cherchi & Francesco Cenedese (2024): Minimum Income and Social Inclusion Pathways : A review ofselected European Union programs. (Social protection & jobs : discussion paper / World Bank Group, Social Protection & Jobs 2408), Washington, DC, 90 S.
Abstract
"Across European Union (EU) countries, the institutional design of Minimum Income (MI) programs varies widely in terms of the benefits and services provided to recipients, despite significant convergence toward a similar MI model and shared common approaches. This discussion paper investigates the delivery of social inclusion pathways, i.e., non-monetary support components to foster MI recipients' social inclusion and highlights common challenges and good practices across eight EU case study countries (Belgium, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Spain, and Sweden). The paper shows that while some countries prioritize labor activation for workforce reintegration of MI recipients, others aim for broader social inclusion, recognizing the challenges in integrating such recipients into the labor market due to their complex needs. Moreover, the paper examines how the social inclusion pathway and case management interventions in MI programs affect recipient's welfare within poverty-targeted programs. It notes the lack of evidence on the effectiveness and impact of social inclusion pathways within MIs and mentions ongoing evaluations in Spain, Italy, and France to address this gap."

Participatory Support for NEET Young People: A Case Study of a Finnish Educational Project (2024)
Zitatform
Määttä, Mirja, Sanna Toiviainen & Sanna Aaltonen (2024): Participatory Support for NEET Young People: A Case Study of a Finnish Educational Project. In: Journal of applied youth studies, Jg. 7, H. 1, S. 65-82. DOI:10.1007/s43151-024-00115-4
Abstract
"The aim of this paper is to offer a nuanced inquiry into the practices and scope of educational support offered to young people who are not in education, employment, or training (NEET). The study is based on participant observations and qualitative interviews with 35 young people and five project workers within the context of a Finnish educational project, which offered a daily group-based learning environment for 15-to-24-year-old NEET young people. Following a sociological interventionist approach, we interpret the logic of action—program theory—of the project, namely how the project workers defined the problems they intended to solve and what their aims and practical solutions were. Enhancing youth participation was the key point of their program theory. We juxtapose the program theory with young people's perceptions of how they experienced the project's participation-enhancing measures. In our analysis, we describe three levels of activity and participation forms the project enabled for the young people involved: individual, communal, and structural. The project enabled young people's participation by offering tailored support for education and work and a social learning community linking young people to the wider community. Structural and systemic hindrances were also acknowledged, but the project aimed at helping the students adapt to these rather than challenging them. The results of this case study suggest that projects targeting NEET young people can operate and have an effect beyond individual support but could pay more attention to the structural barriers and let young people develop their own critical thinking."

Abstract
"Die Lage auf dem deutschen Arbeitsmarkt hat sich in den zurückliegenden zwei Jahrzehnten fundamental verändert. Im Vergleich zur Situation kurz nach der Jahrtausendwende, als in der Spitze über 5 Millionen Menschen offiziell arbeitslos gemeldet waren, könnte man vordergründig den Eindruck gewinnen, dass die Arbeitsmarktprobleme der Vergangenheit gelöst sind und die Politik ihre Hausaufgaben bei der Bekämpfung der Massenarbeitslosigkeit gemacht hat. Ohne Frage markieren die Jahre 2005/2006 nach der vollständigen Umsetzung der sogenannten „Hartz-Reformen “ einen markanten Wendepunkt auf dem deutschen Arbeitsmarkt." (Textauszug, IAB-Doku)

Abstract
"British employment service delivery has shifted towards a model primed on core ‘workfare’ objectives – that is, enforcing behavioral compliance to work-related duties and expanding participation in work. Nevertheless, significant gaps remain in current knowledge about how workfare is implemented daily by frontline staff. The existing international street-level research on employment service delivery reveals how workers use a range of discretionary practices to achieve workfare objectives. Yet this research largely ignores how, in practice, a key aspect of enforcing behavioral compliance and encouraging work participation is through contending with its opposite – behavioral non-compliance. Analyzing 13 interviews with frontline staff, this article contributes to street-level knowledge by revealing the ways managers and workers in British employment services are encouraged to detect and correct variations of claimant non-compliance."

Abstract
"We combine a high-frequency survey on job search effort with administrative data on caseworker interactions from the German unemployment insurance system to estimate how the dynamics of search effort respond to caseworker meetings and vacancy referrals. Meetings alone do not increase individuals' search time beyond a mechanical meeting-day effect; however, we find suggestive evidence that they do when combined with a formal contract on job search obligations. Referrals lead to a modest increase in effort over the three weeks following the event. Our findings leave room for caseworkers affecting employment outcomes through other channels, for example, by altering search effectiveness."

In: BMC public health, Jg. 24, H. 1. DOI:10.1186/s12889-024-20323-0
Abstract
"Background: There is a vicious cycle between unemployment and mental health issues. Unemployed individuals with mental health issues require individualized support at multiple levels in order to promote their mental health, and obtain and retain employment. The 3for1-intervention program aims to provide such support with three components (short-term psychotherapy, job coaching based on the Individual Placement and Support approach, and peer support). This study protocol outlines how the effectiveness of this three-component intervention program in terms of re-employment, mental health, and psychosocial outcomes will be evaluated. Methods: The 3for1-intervention program will be evaluated with a non-randomized controlled trial design in a multi-center study. 500 eligible participants aged between 18 and 60 years from six job centers in Southern Germany will be allocated to a control group or an intervention group. Allocation is time-based, with the control group being recruited first, followed by recruitment of the intervention group. The control group will receive treatment as usual, whereas the intervention group will receive treatment as usual as well as access to the three intervention components over a period of 12 months. Assessment will be conducted at baseline (t0), and 12 (t1) and 18 (t3) months later. The primary outcome will be the proportion of participants who are in employment subject to social insurance contributions at t1. Differences between control and intervention group will be tested with logistic regression analysis, controlling for relevant covariates. Analyses of secondary outcomes will relate to group differences regarding re-employment, health and well-being, social integration, help-seeking, and self-stigma at t1 and t2, applying logistic regression analysis or analysis of covariance. Additionally, usage of health services will be measured to evaluate the intervention program’s cost effectiveness. Discussion: The 3for1-intervention aims to improve employability and mental health outcomes of a vulnerable population with high need for assistance. Improvements for this population would benefit the German welfare state as well. This study could provide valuable insights into the feasibility, implementation, and sustainability of this individualized, multi-level support program within German job centers. Trial registration: This trial is registered with the German Clinical Trials Register: DRKS00029002 (registered on 11 May 2022)." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Abstract
"Die in den 1950er Jahren infolge der Kriegsschäden und Einwanderung Vertriebener nach Westdeutschland noch hohe Arbeitslosigkeit (Braun/Weber, 2016) glaubte man überwunden. Die Arbeitslosenquote lag im Zeitraum 1960 bis 1973 nur einmal – im Jahr 1967 infolge einer leichten Rezession – kurzzeitig über 2 Prozent der abhängigen zivilen Erwerbspersonen. Dies änderte sich in den Jahren 1974 und 1975 deutlich, als im Zuge des Ölpreisschocks das Bruttoinlandsprodukt zunächst nur schwach zunahm und dann sogar recht deutlich zurückging. In dieser Phase stieg die Arbeitslosenquote auf 4 bis 5 Prozent (Abbildung 1). Dieser Anstieg war Ausgangspunkt einer langen Arbeitsmarktkrise, die bis zum Jahr 2005 andauerte."

Abstract
"In November 2023, the European Commission unveiled a set of initiatives to address severe labor shortages. These included the creation of the European Union Talent Pool, an online platform designed to facilitate connections between employers in the EU and jobseekers from non-EU countries. This platform provides a repository of skills and facilitates international recruitment and legal migration procedures. These measures are intended to complement other efforts at the EU and national levels, including initiatives to re-skill and up-skill the existing workforce to meet the changing needs of employers. These efforts also include activating the inactive population and increasing intra-EU mobility. The formulation and implementation of such policies underscore a major concern of policymakers regarding the phenomenon of labor shortage within the EU. Concurrently, they raise crucial questions about the extent of evidence available to substantiate claims of labor shortages, the circumstances under which such shortages arise and the mechanisms that drive them."

Abstract
"This article explores the accountability experiences and orientations of frontline workers implementing personalized activation services in the Norwegian Labor and Welfare Administration (NAV). The study draws on observations and interviews (2021), with three teams of employment specialists using Supported Employment as an approach to personalized service provision, in a national program called Extended Follow-up. Adopting the theoretical lens of accountability as behaviors of account giving, three strategies on how to adopt the accountability regime at the frontline are highlighted: (i) reporting, where one team complied with accountability requirements as the perceived best practices for achieving success in work inclusion; (ii) mitigating, where accountability requirements were fulfilled but combined with attention to how to best meet jobseekers’ needs; and (iii) reframing, where accountability requirements were challenged and redefined. The study highlights how accountability requirements may be interpreted variably, promoting personalized service innovation on the one hand or stagnation on the other."

Abstract
"This article highlights the limitations of unidimensional analyses in the comparative welfare state literature and emphasises the need for a more holistic, multidimensional approach incorporating social spending, welfare state outputs and outcomes. To illustrate the utility of a multidimensional approach, we examine the long‐term welfare state trajectories of Sweden and Germany, prototypical social‐democratic and conservative welfare states, respectively, and compare them against the baseline of Europe's prototypical liberal welfare state, the United Kingdom. The social spending (expenditure) and output (generosity) allowed us to identify significant changes in the Swedish welfare state (i.e., retrenchment). The outcome dimension alerts us to a policy drift in the German Welfare State, as relatively stable public spending and welfare generosity until the first half of the 2000s were nonetheless associated with sharply increased inequality and poverty. Overall, our findings suggest that a holistic, multidimensional approach is necessary to fully understand the complexities of welfare state change and continuity, as focusing solely on one dimension can lead to analytical misjudgments. The sharp rise in inequality and poverty across countries raises doubts about whether policymakers and researchers rely too much on outdated assumptions of normality that fail to meet the welfare state realities of today."

"Die Bundesagentur für Arbeit (BA) ist einer der größten Anbieter von Beratungen in Bildung, Beruf und Beschäftigung. Neben der Beratung von arbeitslosen Personen adressiert das Beratungsangebot auch Personen, die sich beruflich orientieren oder (weiter-)entwickeln wollen. Seit der Corona-Pandemie kann das Beratungsangebot der BA auch im Format der Videoberatung in Anspruch genommen werden. Auch wenn diese Beratungen eine große Nähe zu Face-to-Face-Beratungen aufweisen, sind sie digital vermittelt. Der Beitrag untersucht mit Hilfe von quantitativen und qualitativen Befragungen von Beratungsfachkräften der BA, welche Erfahrungen mit Videoberatung gemacht wurden, welche professionelle Anforderungen und Herausforderungen die Beratenden dabei wahrnehmen und wie sie hierfür ihre Kompetenzen einschätzen. Die Ergebnisse zeigen ein relativ hohes Kompetenzempfinden, und es konnte einer Typologie von Videoberatenden der BA exploriert werden." (Autorenreferat, IAB-Doku)
