New classification of employment agencies: Integration results depend on regional labour market conditions

Abstract

"The integration of unemployed into employment is the most important aim of active labour market policy. The achievement of this objective is influenced by regional labour market conditions. To make integration outcomes comparable the Federal Employment Agency uses a classification which arranges employment agencies with similar labour market conditions into groups, so called comparison types. The results of a recent update of this classification are reported." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))
