Beschäftigungseffekte von Ein-Euro-Jobs in den Einsatzbetrieben

Abstract

"This study examines the impact of One-Euro-Jobs on the employment development and staff structure in public, non-profit and private establishments. The data source is the IAB Establishment Panel 2005 to 2013, which is linked to regional indicators at district level (unemployment rate, share of One-Euro-Jobs in the total population, local debts per inhabitant, population density, regional density of public employment). We use linear and non-linear static panel models as well as dynamic panel methods. The results do not reveal an overall effect of One-Euro-Jobs on total employment. However, we identify a positive - complementary - effect on high skilled workers and a negative - substitutive - effect on low-skilled workers. Our interpretation is as follows: The implementation of measures like One-Euro-Jobs partly requires high skilled staff for management, instruction, qualification and support. The decline of One-Euro-Jobs during the past years led to a decreasing demand for these positions. In contrast, the substitutive relationship between One-Euro-Jobs and low-skilled workers indicates that the decrease of One-Euro-Jobs in recent years led to an increasing demand for low-skilled workers."
