Abstract

Active labor market
policies are the most applied policy for developed and developing countries to
solve the problem of unemployment that has become one of the most important
problems of the economies since 18th century with the problems of distribution.
Active labor market policies often consist of job search assistance, vocational
training, public and private sector job creation subsidies, although they vary
from country to country and from program framework to scope. In this study, a
meta-analysis study was carried out on the effects of the policies applied
within different programs. The analysis of 77 different studies showed that
both positive and negative effects were found.

Abstract



Bölüşüm sorunları ile birlikte
18.Y.Y dan itibaren ekonomilerin en önemli sorunlarından biri haline gelen
işsizlik sorununun çözümü için gelişmiş ve gelişmekte olan ülkelerde en fazla
uygulanan politika Aktif İşgücü Piyasası Politikalarıdır. Ülke bazında ve
program çerçevesi kapsamında değişiklikler gösterse de, Aktif işgücü piyasası
politikaları genellikle iş arama yardımları, mesleki eğitimler, kamu ve özel
sektör iş yaratma sübvansiyonlarından oluşmaktadır. Bu çalışma ile farklı
programlar kapsamında uygulanan politikaların etkileri konusunda meta analiz
çalışması yapılmıştır.  77 farklı
çalışmanın derlenmesi ile yapılan analizde hem pozitif hem negatif etkilerin
varlığı tespit edilmiştir.
