我们研究了工人分析和再就业服务系统的效果。该方案“分析”失业保险索赔人，以确定他们的福利用尽概率，然后向预测概率高的索赔人提供强制性就业和培训服务。使用一个独特的实验设计，我们估计，该计划减少了约2.2周的平均周的UI福利接收，减少了约143美元的平均UI福利接收，并增加了超过1050美元的后续收入。大部分的影响是由于治疗组相对于对照组早期UI退出的急剧增加。
We examine the effect of the Worker Profiling and Reemployment Services system. This program "profiles" Unemployment Insurance (UI) claimants to determine their probability of benefit exhaustion and then provides mandatory employment and training services to claimants with high predicted probabilities. Using a unique experimental design, we estimate that the program reduces mean weeks of UI benefit receipt by about 2.2 weeks, reduces mean UI benefits received by about $143, and increases subsequent earnings by over $1,050. Most of the effect results from a sharp increase in early UI exits in the treatment group relative to the control group.
