Description:
In this project the team of IES researchers provided the model for the macroeconomic evaluation of ALMP with the aim of predicting the best possible social effects for the money invested.

The aim of the project was to evaluate the impact of employment policies, particularly active labor market measures on the total and specific outcomes of the labor market and employment, and their impact on macroeconomic trends. The survey was conducted on the entire population of the unemployed registered with the National Employment Service, so the results give unequivocal recommendations concerning the current activities of the state in terms of active participation in reducing the unemployment.
