论文摘要
这项研究使用一项随机控制试验来评估一项新计划,以增加难民的劳动力市场融合。授予居留许可后,该计划将立即引入高度密集的援助。早期干预策略与以前的整合政策进行了对比,该政策通常构成长时间的低密集型帮助。我们发现对该计划的就业有积极影响。效果的大小是实质性的,相当于约15个百分点。我们的成本估计表明,新政策比过去使用的可比劳动力市场计划便宜。
This study uses a randomized control trial to evaluate a new program for increased labor market integration of refugees. The program introduces highly intensive assistance immediately after the residence permit is granted. The early intervention strategy contrasts previous integration policies, which typically constitute low-intensive help over long periods of time. We find positive effects on employment of the program. The magnitude of the effect is substantial, corresponding to around 15 percentage points. Our cost estimates suggest that the new policy is less expensive than comparable labor market programs used in the past.
