令人惊讶的是,很少有研究失业保险(UI)对失业后工资结果的影响。此外,现有的少数研究在方法和结论上存在足够大的差异,经验丰富的观察者对其影响得出了非常不同的解释。我们提供了新的估计UI对随后的收入的影响,在1983-1990年期间流离失所的工人的数据。我们的目标是提供一个系统的评价方法在现有的文献中使用。我们发现一些有限的证据,有利的影响,UI的收入,但只有当我们比较收件人与nonrecipients。即使在这种情况下,我们的点估计值也远低于早期研究中报告的那些有益的UI效应。
There is surprisingly little research into the effects of unemployment insurance (UI) on postunemployment wage outcomes. Moreover, the few existing studies are sufficiently varied in their approach and conclusions that experienced observers have reached very different interpretations of their implications. We provide new estimates of the effect of UI on subsequent earnings, using data on workers displaced in the period 1983–1990. Our objective is to provide a systematic evaluation of the approaches used in the existing literature. We find some limited evidence of a favorable impact of UI on earnings, but only when we compare recipients with nonrecipients. Even in this case, our point estimates lie well below those reported in earlier studies that pointed to beneficial UI effects.
