新型冠状病毒对经济的冲击程度一明朗，英国政府就推出了三项直接保护家庭收入的政策：就业保留计划（Job Retention Scheme），为暂时休假的员工支付工资;自雇收入支持计划（Self-Employment Income Support Scheme），为业务受到影响的已建立的自雇人士提供赠款;以及一揽子增加社会保障福利的计划，以普遍信贷为核心，加强了英国的经济状况调查“安全网”。本文分析了这些政策的设计和受益者，并考虑到劳动力市场冲击的分布模式，考虑了对生活水平，特别是低收入家庭生活水平的新的总体影响。
As soon as the scale of the coronavirus shock to the economy became clear, the UK government introduced three policies to protect directly household incomes: a Job Retention Scheme, to pay the wages of employees who were temporarily furloughed; a Self-Employment Income Support Scheme, to give grants to established self-employed people whose businesses had been affected; and a package of increases to entitlements to social security benefits, with Universal Credit at the core, that bolstered the UK’s means-tested ‘safety net’. This paper analyses the design and beneficiaries of these policies and, given the distributional pattern of the labour market shock, considers the emerging overall impact on living standards, particularly of low-income households.
