Tackling long-term unemployment: the path is rocky and strenuous

Abstract

"Despite the positive situation on the labour market, long-term unemployment is a serious problem, especially as it is persistent. More than a third of the persons unemployed have been so for longer than one year. In addition to this, the long-term unemployed have more problems exiting unemployment and finding a job."
