 The return to work policies in a time of crisis: a comparison between Germany and FranceJulien Reysz ()
Post-Print from HAL Abstract: Financial innovations for jobseekers have resulted, in Germany and France, in the implementation of financial incentives to return to work. These financial incentives have taken the form of permanent incentives with the payment of grants to return to work and of financial aids to business creation. They also have taken the form of transitory incentives through the tax credit mechanism and through the diminution of the marginal tax rate applied to the measure of "labour income plus social allowances". The effects of the financial incentives on reintegration into the labour market remain ambiguous. Despite their rather positive impact on employment, they do not significantly increase the rate of return to work of the unemployed. In addition, they contribute to the development of low-wage jobs and do not always allow the recipients to go out of poverty.
