    Pohlan, Laura (2024): Unemployment's long shadow: the persistent impact on social exclusion. In: Journal for labour market research, Jg. 58, 2024-06-06. DOI:10.1186/s12651-024-00369-8

    Abstract

    "This paper studies the long-term consequences of unemployment on different dimensions of social exclusion. Based on longitudinal linked survey and administrative data from Germany and an event study analysis combined with inverse propensity score weighting, I document that becoming unemployed has lasting adverse effects on both individuals’ material well-being and their subjective perception of social status and integration, persisting even after four years. An examination of effect heterogeneity underscores that the enduring effects of job loss are more pronounced for individuals confronted with challenging labor market conditions, those with a history of repeated unemployment, and individuals with lower levels of educational attainment."

    Shelter from the storm: do partnerships buffer the well-being costs of unemployment? (2024)

    Prechsl, Sebastian & Tobias Wolbring (2024): Shelter from the storm: do partnerships buffer the well-being costs of unemployment? In: European Sociological Review, Jg. 40, H. 5, S. 820-837., 2023-10-01. DOI:10.1093/esr/jcad066

    Abstract

    "This article contributes to the existing literature on the effects of unemployment on subjective well-being (SWB) by partnership status. We argue that material and latent deprivation can explain the effects of becoming and remaining unemployed on SWB by partnership status, as both partners and their employment status crucially shape the extent of deprivation. To test our hypothesis about partnership-specific unemployment effects on SWB and the mediating roles of latent deprivation (in terms of status loss) and material deprivation, we use 14 waves of German panel data. To identify time-varying unemployment effects, we rely on time-distributed fixed effects models. Our results suggest a strong negative and rather time-constant impact of unemployment on SWB, buffered over time for those with working or nonworking partners. Furthermore, our results indicate in particular material deprivation but also latent deprivation to be relevant mechanisms for explaining partnership-specific trajectories in the loss of SWB."

    Schmillen, Achim, Matthias Umkehrer & Till von Wachter (2024): Measurement error in longitudinal earnings data: evidence from Germany. In: Journal for labour market research, Jg. 58, 2024-05-13. DOI:10.1186/s12651-024-00366-x

    Abstract

    "We present evidence on the extent of measurement error in German longitudinal earnings data. Qualitatively, we confirm the main result of the international literature: longitudinal earnings data are relatively reliable in a cross section but much less so in first differences. Quantitatively, in the cross section our fndings are very similar to those of Bound and Krueger (J Labor Econ 9:1–24, 1991) and Pischke (J Bus Econ Stat 13:305–314, 1995) for the United States while we find even stronger evidence that frst-differencing exacerbates measurement error problems. We also show that measurement error in our survey data is not“classical” as it is negatively correlated with administrative earnings and positively autocorrelated over an extended period of time. Additionally, we estimate a model of measurement error stemming from underreporting of transitory earnings shocks in combination with a white-noise component and make a number of methodological contributions. Our results are robust to the use of two different linked Survey administrative data sets and various other sensitivity checks." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku, © Springer) ((en))

    On the effects of active labour market policies among individuals reporting to have severe mental health problems (2024)

    Tübbicke, Stefan & Maximilian Schiele (2024): On the effects of active labour market policies among individuals reporting to have severe mental health problems. In: Social Policy and Administration, Jg. 58, H. 3, S. 404-422., 2023-09-10. DOI:10.1111/spol.12968

    Abstract

    "On the one hand, unemployment is known to have detrimental effects on individuals' mental health. On the other hand, poor mental health reduces re-employment chances quite drastically, creating a vicious cycle. Active labour market policies (ALMPs) such as training programs or wage subsidies have been shown to ameliorate negative effects on mental health and improve labour market integration on average for the general unemployed population. In the context of individuals with severe mental health issues, however, it is unclear whether these interventions can be expected to deliver similar positive effects. In fact, one may argue that they have the potential to worsen employment prospects of individuals by adding additional stress to their pre-existing mental health problems. Hence, this paper estimates the long-term causal effects of ALMPs on the labour market integration of individuals with self-reported severe mental health issues and compares estimates to individuals without such issues using unique combined survey and administrative data. Effects are estimated using the innovative double machine learning method and show that ALMPs do not only improve labour market integration of unemployed individuals with severe mental health issues, but they do so more effectively than for other unemployed individuals."

    Zimmermann, Florian, Andreas Filser, Georg-Christoph Haas & Sebastian Bähr (2024): The IAB-SMART-Mobility Module: An Innovative Research Dataset with Mobility Indicators Based on Raw Geodata. In: Jahrbücher für Nationalökonomie und Statistik, Jg. 244, H. 5-6, S. 685-698., 2023-07-15. DOI:10.1515/jbnst-2023-0051

    Abstract

    "The ubiquity of smartphones has enabled the collection of novel data through their built-in sensors, including geolocation data which can be used to understand mobility behavior. In this project, we leveraged longitudinal geolocation data collected from participants in the 2018 German app study IAB-SMART to develop a set of mobility indicators, such as visited unique locations and traveled distance. The indicators can be linked to the Panel Study Labour Market and Social Security (PASS) survey and administrative employment histories. The resulting novel dataset offers a unique opportunity to study the relationship between mobility and labor market outcomes. This article provides an overview of the study, outlines the data preparation process, and the socio-demographic characteristics of the 398 participants of the IAB-SMART-Mobility module. We present the mobility indicators generated from the geolocation data and provide guidance for accessing the Institute for Employment Research’s (IAB) data."

    Barrieren der Inanspruchnahme monetärer Leistungen für Familien: Abschlussbericht (2023)

    Baisch, Benjamin; Zollner, Corinna; Boll, Christina ; Castiglioni, Laura; Müller, Dagmar;

    Baisch, Benjamin, Dagmar Müller, Corinna Zollner, Laura Castiglioni & Christina Boll (2023): Barrieren der Inanspruchnahme monetärer Leistungen für Familien. Abschlussbericht. München, 108 S. DOI:10.36189/DJI202305

    Abstract

    "Die vorliegende Studie ist das zweite Teilprojekt des vom BMFSFJ geförderten Projekts „Familien mit Migrationshintergrund (migfam)“. Ein bis zwei Drittel der Haushalte, die in Deutschland zum Bezug von Grundsicherungsleistungen berechtigt sind, nehmen diese nicht in Anspruch. Auch familienpolitische Leistungen erreichen häufig nicht die Zielgruppen, für die sie gedacht sind. Die Nichtinanspruchnahme monetärer Leistungen ist ein politisches Problem, weil die mit den Leistungen verbundenen Ziele, etwa die Bekämpfung von Armut oder der Ausgleich familienbedingter Lasten, schwerer erreicht werden. Daher ist es wichtig, die Gründe zu verstehen, die zur Nichtinanspruchnahme führen, um darauf aufbauend Strategien zu entwickeln, die Menschen die Verwirklichung ihrer sozialen Rechte erlauben. Das Projekt, dessen Ergebnisse im vorliegenden Bericht dargestellt werden, hat sich vor diesem Hintergrund eingehend mit der Literatur zur Nichtinanspruchnahme monetärer Leistungen befasst und dabei insbesondere die Barrieren der Inanspruchnahme für Migrantinnen und Migranten in den Blick genommen. Diese liegen teils schon im rechtlichen Ausschluss von bestimmten Leistungen, der Fokus im Projekt lag jedoch auf der Nichtinanspruchnahme von Leistungen trotz Anspruchsberechtigung. Hauptziel der Studie war es, den Forschungsstand zu (migrationsspezifischen) Barrieren der Inanspruchnahme zu sichten, das Potenzial vorhandener Surveys für weitergehende Analysen zu prüfen und Ideen für anschlussfähige Forschungen zu entwickeln. Aus der Literatur lässt sich ableiten, dass es vor allem bürokratische Hürden sind, die Menschen an der Inanspruchnahme von Leistungen hindern, z.B. komplexe Antragsverfahren, zu erbringende Nachweise oder die unzureichende Abstimmung zwischen den einzelnen Leistungssystemen. Hinzu kommen Unkenntnis und mangelnde Information über Rechtsansprüche, Sprachbarrieren, Schamgefühle sowie stigmatisierende und diskriminierende Erfahrungen der Antragstellenden. Teilweise wird auch kein Bedarf gesehen, etwa, weil die Leistungshöhe im Vergleich zum Beantragungsaufwand zu gering erscheint. Die Gründe für die Nichtinanspruchnahme monetärer Leistungen sind allerdings noch nicht hinreichend erforscht. Beispielsweise ist unklar, wie die einzelnen Einflussfaktoren zusammenwirken. Auch über regionale und gruppenspezifische Unterschiede der (Nicht-)Inanspruchnahme ist wenig bekannt. Die Auswertung vorhandener Bevölkerungssurveys führt nur bedingt weiter, weil relevante Informationen teils gar nicht erhoben werden und die Repräsentativität und Aussagekraft der Daten begrenzt ist. Sinnvoll wären, je nach Fragestellung, auch qualitative und experimentelle Studien. Insgesamt empfiehlt sich daher ein Mixed Methods-Ansatz, der die Seite der Anspruchsberechtigten ebenso wie die der Verwaltung in den Blick nimmt." (Autorenreferat, IAB-Doku)

    Matching Through Search Channels (2023)

    Carillo-Tudela, Carlos, Leo Kaas & Benjamin Lochner (2023): Matching Through Search Channels. (IAB-Discussion Paper 10/2023), Nürnberg, 85 S. DOI:10.48720/IAB.DP.2310

    Abstract

    "Firmen und Arbeitnehmer/-innen finden überwiegend über Stellenanzeigen, persönliche Kontaktnetzwerke oder die Bundesagentur für Arbeit zueinander. All diese Suchkanäle tragen dazu bei, Friktionen am Arbeitsmarkt zu verringern. In diesem Papier untersuchen wir, inwieweit diese Suchkanäle unterschiedliche Auswirkungen auf den Arbeitsmarkt haben. Anhand einer neuen Datenverknüpfung aus administrativer Daten und Umfragedaten zeigen wir: (i) Niedriglohnfirmen und Niedriglohnbeziehende finden vermehrt über Netzwerke oder die Bundesagentur für Arbeit zueinander, währendessen Hochlohnfirmen und Hochlohnbeziehende häufiger über Stellenanzeigen zusammenkommen. (ii) Dabei nutzen Firmen Stellenanzeigen vor allem bei der Abwerbung und Gewinnung von Hochlohnbeziehenden. Im Vergleich zu anderen Suchkanälen, werden Stellenanzeigen auch vermehrt von Beschäftigten beim Aufstieg auf der Karriereleiter genutzt. Um die Auswirkungen dieser Beobachtungen auf die aggregierte Beschäftigung, die Löhne und die Arbeitsmarktsortierung zu bewerten, schätzen wir strukturell ein Gleichgewichtsmodell, das sich durch Karriereleitern, zweiseitige Heterogenität, mehrere Suchkanäle und endogene Einstellungsintensität auszeichnet. Die Schätzung zeigt, dass Netzwerke der kosteneffizienteste Kanal sind, der es Firmen ermöglicht, schnell einzustellen, aber auch Arbeitskräfte mit geringeren durchschnittlichen Fähigkeiten anzuziehen. Stellenanzeigen sind der kostspieligste Kanal, erleichtern die Einstellung von Arbeitnehmern/-innen mit höheren Fähigkeiten und sind für die Sortierung zwischen Beschäftigten und Firmen am wichtigsten. In kontrafaktischen Berechnungen zeigt sich, dass obwohl die Bundesagentur für Arbeit die geringste Einstellungswahrscheinlichkeit bietet, ihre hypothetische Abschaffung beträchtliche Folgen hätte. Die Gesamtbeschäftigung würde um mindestens 1,4 Prozent sinken und die Lohnungleichheit steigen." (Autorenreferat, IAB-Doku)

    Carrillo-Tudela, Carlos, Leo Kaas & Benjamin Lochner (2023): Matching Through Search Channels. (CESifo working paper 10761), München, 32 S.

    Abstract

    "Firms and workers predominately match via job postings, networks of personal contacts or the public employment agency, all of which help to ameliorate labor market frictions. In this paper we investigate the extent to which these search channels have differential effects on labor market outcomes. Using novel linked survey-administrative data we document that (i) low-wage firms and low-wage workers are more likely to match via networks or the public agency, while high-wage firms and high-wage workers succeed more often via job postings; (ii) job postings help firms the most in poaching and attracting high-wage workers and help workers the most in climbing the job ladder. To evaluate the implications of these findings for employment, wages and labor market sorting, we structurally estimate an equilibrium job ladder model featuring two-sided heterogeneity, multiple search channels and endogenous recruitment effort. The estimation reveals that networks are the most cost-effective channel, allowing firms to hire quickly, yet attracting workers of lower average ability. Job postings are the most costly channel, facilitate hiring workers of higher ability, and matter most for worker-firm sorting. Although the public employment agency provides the lowest hiring probability, its removal has sizeable consequences, with aggregate employment declining by at least 1.4 percent and rising bottom wage inequality."

    Social policy and labor supply: the impact of activating labor market institutions on reservation wages (2023)

    Fuchs, Benjamin, Sebastian Prechsl & Tobias Wolbring (2023): Social policy and labor supply: the impact of activating labor market institutions on reservation wages. In: Socio-economic review, Jg. 21, H. 2, S. 863-884., 2022-02-16. DOI:10.1093/ser/mwac002

    Abstract

    "Activation is an efficacious policy paradigm in modern welfare states. Taking the case of Germany, we study the relationship between the embeddedness of benefit recipients in activating labor market institutions and individual labor supply. Using panel data, we estimate the effects of transitions between key institutional states with different degrees of activation on reservation wages (RWs). We show that RWs react to activation: the transition from gainful employment to unemployment benefit receipt leads to an average decrease of 3.1% in RWs. The transition from gainful employment to welfare benefit receipt—an institutional state with far more rigorous activation—leads to a stronger decrease of 4.9%. Mediation analyses show that the income associated with different institutional states is the predominant mechanism that drives the effect on RWs. However, subjective social status also partly mediates the effect. Implications of these findings for active labor market policies are discussed."

    Changes in Income Poverty Risks at the Transition from Unemployment to Employment: Comparing the Short-Term and Medium-Term Effects of Fixed-Term and Permanent Jobs (2023)

    Gebel, Michael & Stefanie Gundert (2023): Changes in Income Poverty Risks at the Transition from Unemployment to Employment: Comparing the Short-Term and Medium-Term Effects of Fixed-Term and Permanent Jobs. In: Social indicators research, Jg. 167, H. 1, S. 507-533., 2023-04-11. DOI:10.1007/s11205-023-03118-5

    Abstract

    "Unemployment is a major risk factor of poverty and employment is regarded key to overcoming it. The present study examines how the income poverty risk of unemployed individuals changes in the short and medium term, when they take up work, and whether the effects differ according to the type of employment. The focus is on permanent and fixed-term job contracts, as the political promotion of fixed-term employment has often been framed as an effort to reduce long-term unemployment and poverty. Drawing on longitudinal data from the German panel study ‘Labour Market and Social Security’ (PASS) 2010–18, we apply a first difference estimator with asymmetric effects to examine the effect of starting a job out of unemployment on income poverty risks in the subsequent four years. Strikingly, starting in a fixed-term and permanent contract have similarly strong and lasting poverty-reducing effects in the short and medium term. Thus, with regard to risks of income poverty, starting a permanent job does not appear more beneficial than starting a fixed-term job for unemployed persons. We discuss the reasons for this finding and also explore how the poverty-reducing effects of transitions from unemployment to fixed-term versus permanent employment vary by household type, occupation, working time and firm size."

    A Relational Approach to Understanding Welfare Recipients' Transitions from Long-Term Unemployment to Employment and the Role of Case Work (2023)

    Hirseland, Andreas & Lukas Kerschbaumer (2023): A Relational Approach to Understanding Welfare Recipients' Transitions from Long-Term Unemployment to Employment and the Role of Case Work. In: Social work & society, Jg. 21, H. 1, S. 1-18., 2023-09-21.

    Abstract

    "In Germany, the great majority of long-term unemployed face difficulties in (re-)entering the labour market due to a variety of barriers, including insufficient educational and/or vocational qualifications, poor health, migration background, language deficits, being over 50 years old, and family care responsibilities. However, the work-first approach of German employment services has difficulties in overcoming the multitude of these barriers. In contrast to many quantitative analyses on the topic, our qualitative study adopts a relational-theoretical approach. This approach combines synchronicity and diachronicity perspectives to analyse the conditions that enable transitions into sustainable and sufficient employment, despite the aforementioned adversities. Based on 33 cases of long-term unemployed we used biographical interviews and a modified qualitative network analysis to identify factors that hinder or facilitate such unlikely transitions into the primary labour market. Our findings suggest that a "life-first approach" referring to the lifeworld of individuals can increase the likelihood of these transitions and retention in employment. Therefore, our findings imply that casework focused on lifeworld and biography holds the greatest potential for providing institutional support to these individuals."

    Abstract

    "This paper contributes to the literature examining the interplay of education, social integration, and mental health. Based on social network theories, we argue that social integration plays a role in explaining the link between education and mental health. Using data from the German Panel Study Labour Market and Social Security (PASS) (observation period: 2006/2007–2018), our sample comprises 16,870 individuals. We use panel regression models to analyze the association between education and the probability of reporting at least good mental health. Based on mediation analysis techniques, we investigate the mediating role of strong and weak ties in this relationship. Results show that overall social integration, the number of close friends and relatives, and memberships in voluntary associations partly explain the link between education and mental health."

    Abstract

    "This article contributes to the literature on persistent gender inequalities in the labour market by investigating gender role attitudes in Germany and their association with labour market behaviour. Based on the German Panel Study ‘Labour Market and Social Security’ (PASS), longitudinal analyses are applied to examine the influence of gender role attitudes and the household context on various employment states. The results reveal that gender role attitudes are crucial for labour market behaviour and that there are differences among women and men in different household contexts. Whereas single men and women do not differ significantly in their employment probabilities, women in couple households are less active in the labour market than their male counterparts. Furthermore, differences in employment are largest in couples with children. Among women, differences in full-time employment by household context become smaller when these women hold egalitarian attitudes." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

    Welfare Sanctions and Deprivation in Germany: Do First Sanctions Lead to Higher Levels of Deprivation Among the Long-Term Unemployed and Recipients of Basic Income Support? (2023)

    Abstract

    "In Germany, as in many other European countries, vast changes in the welfare regime - towards workfare - have taken place. As a central activating element of workfare, sanctions were introduced to take effect by temporarily increasing deprivation through benefit cuts. This paper provides first quantitative insights on the effect of first sanctions on deprivation and contributes to the recent debate on the (un)constitutionality of sanctions, which re-emerged after a verdict of the Federal Constitutional Court, criticizing the lack of knowledge about the effects of sanctions on those affected. We implement a difference-in-differences propensity score matching approach that addresses selection on observables and individual time constant unobserved differences. High data accuracy is ensured by combining the “Panel Labour Market and Social Security” (PASS) with administrative data from the Federal Employment Agency. The results illustrate a slightly higher yet statistically insignificant level of deprivation for first-sanctioned unemployment/basic income recipients compared to non-sanctioned recipients. The results hint in the direction that higher levels of deprivation are not what activates the sanctioned beneficiaries to reintegrate into the labour market. We discuss whether the results imply a significant deviation from the socio-cultural subsistence minimum of sanctioned recipients and a failure of the welfare state."

    Papac, Anthony Joseph (2023): Essays on Job Search and Job Choice. Los Angeles, 88 S.

    Abstract

    "This dissertation consists of two essays on job search and job choice. In Chapter 1, I examine how on-the-job search (OJS) effort of employed workers varies over the business cycle. First, I document new evidence that aggregate OJS effort rises during a recession, as more workers start searching on-the-job and average search intensity increases when unemployment rises. Next, I account for compositional changes in the pool of employed workers and job seekers over the business cycle and find that workers change their search behavior in response to changing economic conditions. In particular, workers are more likely to search due to fear of job loss and search for an additional job when unemployment is higher. In addition, I find that job seekers increase their search intensity when unemployment rises during a recession. In Chapter 2, I estimate the value that workers place on non-wage job characteristics and assess their impact on compensation inequality in Germany. First, I evaluate the incidence of four key job attributes and find large disparities in the prevalence of job attributes by gender, education, and age. Next, I analyze an experiment given as part of a national survey in Germany to estimate the value that workers place on eight non-wage job attributes. In particular, I find that workers are willing to pay 31% of their wage to have a permanent employment contract, 13% of their wage for good promotion opportunities, 10% of their wage for schedule flexibility, and 8% of their wage to avoid overtime work requirements. Finally, I find that accounting for the incidence and valuation of non-wage job characteristics widens compensation inequality in Germany." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

    Arbeitslosigkeit und Stellensuchverhalten bei Menschen mit Behinderung im 1. Jahr der Coronapandemie (2023)

    Paul, Karsten Ingmar & Alfons Hollederer (2023): Arbeitslosigkeit und Stellensuchverhalten bei Menschen mit Behinderung im 1. Jahr der Coronapandemie. (DIFIS-Impuls 2023,7), Duisburg ; Bremen, 4 S.

    Abstract

    "Menschen mit Behinderungen weisen seit Langem einen relativ niedrigen Beschäftigungsanteil auf und stellen eine verletzliche Gruppe in Bezug auf Arbeitsmarktbeteiligung und -integration dar. Wäh­rend der Coronapandemie waren sie zudem in Hinblick auf eine COVID-19-Infektion mehr gefährdet als andere Bevölkerungsgruppen. Denn sowohl der Schweregrad des Krankheitsverlaufs bei einer COVID-19-Infektion als auch das daraus resultierende Sterblichkeitsrisiko waren bei Menschen mit bestimmten chronischen Erkrankungen und Behinde­rungen höher als bei Menschen ohne chronische Erkrankungen. Dem Ausbruch der Coronapandemie im Jahr 2020 folgte ein wirtschaftlicher Abschwung. Möglicherweise haben sich in dieser Situation die beiden Probleme der erhöhten Infektionsgefährdung und der erschwerten Arbeitsmarktintegration für Menschen mit Behinde­rung gegenseitig verschärft. In diesem Fall würden diese Menschen sowohl aus gesundheitlicher als auch aus arbeitsmarktpolitischer Sicht eine besonders gefährdete Gruppe darstellen. Daher ist es von Relevanz, zu untersuchen, wie stark Menschen mit Behinderungen während der Coronapandemie von Arbeitslosigkeit betroffen waren und wie sie auf diesen Ausnahmezustand reagiert haben."

    Abstract

    "Not much is known about how the COVID-19 pandemic affected the labor market experiences of people with disabilities. Since they constitute a generally disadvantaged group in the labor market, it is important to scrutinize whether their position has worsened during these difficult times and how they reacted with regard to their job search behavior. We therefore used data for the year 2020 from a large German panel (Panel Arbeitsmarkt und Soziale Sicherung, PASS), in order to scrutinize the prevalence of unemployment among people with disabilities (N = 739) during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. The factors that affected their unemployment status were also analyzed. The study found that people with legally recognized disabilities were more often unemployed than non-disabled people, even when controlling for possible confounding factors such as age, gender, or education. This effect was significant for severe disabilities and marginally significant for minor disabilities. Additionally, the type of disability affected the probability of being unemployed, with cardiovascular diseases, mental illnesses, and musculoskeletal disorders carrying a higher risk. In terms of job-seeking behavior, unemployed people with disabilities reported using some job search methods more frequently than their non-disabled counterparts. However, the intensity of the job search did not differ significantly between the two groups. Further differences were found when analyzing the reasons for abstinence from searching for a job, with unemployed people with disabilities primarily citing health-related factors (with a frequency of over 90%). In summary, health played a pivotal role in determining disabled people’s labor market experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

    Abstract

    "Die Dissertation untersucht anhand des Fallbeispiels der Einkommenserfassung in sozialwissenschaftlichen Befragungen die Mechanismen, Auswirkungen und Korrekturmöglichkeiten von fehlenden Daten. Als Grund für das Fehlen von Antwortangaben lässt sich fehlendes Wissen der Befragten mit einer fehlenden Antwortbereitschaft kontrastieren. Beide Gründe haben differenzierbare Mechanismen und Folgen für das Bild der durch diese Datenbasis ermittelte Einkommensverteilung in der Stichprobe als Surrogat für die interessierende Grundgesamtheit. Die Arbeit bettet diese Problematik in ein theoretisches Grundgerüst ein und identifiziert zunächst systematische Gründe für das Fehlen von Antworten aufgrund von Nichtwissen gegenüber Verweigerung. Das Ausmaß einer möglichen Verzerrung wird durch die Anwendung von verschiedenen Imputationsmethoden und die Betrachtung einer Vielzahl von Verteilungsparameter sowie Armuts- und Ungleichheitsindikatoren bilanziert."

    Abstract

    "Das Bundesministerium für Arbeit und Soziales plant ein Forschungsprojekt mit dem Ziel, die sozialen Lagen von Selbstständigen, die sich daraus ergebenden besonderen Schutzbedarfe sowie die zu ihrer Erfüllung zielführenden sozialpolitischen Maßnahmen statistisch fundiert zu beschreiben. Dafür müssen Daten, welche die Grundgesamtheit der selbstständig tätigen Personen in Deutschland repräsentativ abbilden, erhoben werden. Die Expertise zeigt im Sinne einer Machbarkeitsstudie, wie ein zielführendes und wirtschaftliches Design für dieses Vorhaben aussehen könnte. Sie arbeitet die Vorteile der Anlage einer spezifischen Datenbasis gegenüber der Nutzung vorhandener Datenquellen heraus und erörtert die Möglichkeiten der praktischen Umsetzung einer Querschnittsbefragung, insbesondere Feldzugang und Stichprobendesign, sowie Fragenprogramm und Erhebungsmodus."
