Abstract: "The second edition of the Arbeitsmarktspiegel describes important developments on the German labour market since the introduction of the minimum wage in Germany with latest data until January 2016. Overall employment continues to increase in 2015. The number of exclusively marginal employees, which decreased by a seasonally adjusted estimate of 93,000 persons at the turn of the year 2014/2015, shows a declining trend by the end of the third quarter of 2015. The bottom of this negative trend could be reached by winter. For the first time the second edition of the Arbeitsmarktspiegel shows that most of the transitions from exclusively marginal employment to exclusively employment covered by social security took place in the same establishment. With regard to employees receiving additional benefits according to Social Code Book II, the number of transitions into employment without benefit receipt further increases in the course of 2015 after their initial reaction following the introduction of the minimum wage. Especially those benefit recipients whose parallel employment is subject to social security are able to end eligibility for government benefits. Furthermore, the development of employment is examined in more detail by sex and age groups. The first edition of the Arbeitsmarktspiegel was released as IAB-Forschungsbericht 01/2016 (vom Berge et al., 2016) in January 2016. This research report represents an updated and substantially modified version." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))
