本文探讨女性劳动力供给对丈夫失业的反应，即所谓的附加工人效应。作者通过明确的国际比较视角分析了福利制度中增加的工人效应的变化，为文献做出了贡献。他们利用2004年至2013年欧洲28个国家的欧盟收入和生活条件统计调查（EU-SILC）的纵向数据，发现了工人效应增加的证据，然而，这在欧洲的商业周期和不同的福利制度中有所不同。后一种结果可能部分地被解释为各国失业救济金制度设计的差异，这为失业男子的妻子的劳动力供应创造了不同的激励。
This article investigates the responsiveness of women's labor supply to their husband's job loss-the so-called added worker effect. The authors contribute to the literature by taking an explicit internationally comparative perspective in analyzing the variation of the added worker effect across welfare regimes. Using longitudinal data from the European Union Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC) survey covering 28 European countries from 2004 to 2013, they find evidence of an added worker effect, which, however, varies over both the business cycle and the different welfare regimes in Europe. The latter result might be explained, in part, by differences in the design of the unemployment benefit system across countries, which create different incentives for the labor supply of wives of unemployed men.
