Description
The project conducts an econometric evaluation of the effects of subsidised non-profit temporary employment agencies - a programme of the West German active labour market policy - on individual labour market outcomes. The empirical analysis is based on individual data from files for computer-assisted job brokering in Rhineland-Palatine. Econometric estimates based on matching methods suggest that the programme generated a statistically significant additional reintegration success of about 13 per cent points. Furthermore within the first four month after leaving the programme, the estimated effect was about half a month additional employment for the participants.
