“…Second, the MIS accelerates job finding for older workers (0.2 p.p), whereas for young workers (< 30) it delays exit to employment (1 p.p). This delay among young individuals is also found by Salehi-Isfahani and Mostafavi-Dehzooei (2018). They justify the delay as a result of an extension in the educational period, which contributes to increase educational attainment among the youth.…”

In this paper, we evaluate the impact of a minimum income scheme (MIS) in the Basque Country, one of Spain's 17 autonomous regions. In particular, we assess whether the policy delays entry into employment for recipients, as well as the extent to which activating policies aimed at enabling recipients of the MIS to enter employment work. To do so, we use administrative data of the universe of individuals registered in the public employment service in the region. On average, the minimum income scheme does not delay entry into employment, although the impact differs from one demographic group to another. Furthermore, active labour market policies designed for this group, in particular training, have a strong positive impact on finding a new job.

“…Bertrand, Mullainathan, and Miller (2003) find sharp decreases in the labor supply of prime-aged individuals living with elderly (household members, aged 16-50) around the time they become eligible for pensions, especially when the pensioner is female. 7 The effects are both on employment status (extensive margin) and on hours worked (intensive margin), larger for older Dehzooei (2017) find no effects (of the combined reform of cash transfers and price increases) on weekly hours worked. 5 Interestingly, in both countries, children's engagement in economic activity (including agricultural work for the household, herding livestock, and household chores) and their exposure to hazardous work increase among beneficiary households, without negative effects on school attendance, presumably due to the increased own-agricultural and nonfarm enterprise activity.…”

“…Такой подход к кадровому обеспечению присущ и большинству зарубежных исследований, преимущественно направленных на решение проблем функционирования отдельных субъектов предпринимательства, а не регионально-отраслевых экономических систем [12,13]. Кроме того, в иностранной научной литературе значительное внимание уделяется социально-психологическим вопросам кадрового обеспечения, мотивационным механизмам и улучшению условий трудовой деятельности работников [10,11].…”
