Abstract

This study examines policy efforts to reduce administrative burden and to increase accessibility to unemployment insurance (UI) during the COVID-19 crisis in Israel and the consequences of these for claimants. A mixed-method approach was applied, utilising administrative documents, interviews and survey data. The findings suggest a mixed trend: burden-reducing measures were introduced but were constrained by the system’s preexisting infrastructure. While some claimants experienced the process as simple, many others experienced it as onerous, primarily due to a lack of communication with authorities. Two key insights for successful implementation of burden-reduction policies are highlighted: a well-established infrastructure and bidirectional communication.

减负政策的局限性:以以色列新冠肺炎危机期间失业保险为例

本研究考察了以色列在2019冠状病毒病危机期间为减轻行政负担和增加失业保险可及性所做的政策努力，以及这些政策对索赔人的影响。采用混合方法，利用行政文件、访谈和调查数据。调查结果显示出一种复杂的趋势:采取了减轻负担的措施，但受到系统原有基础设施的限制。虽然一些索赔人认为这一过程很简单，但许多人认为这一过程很繁重，主要是由于缺乏与当局的沟通。报告强调了成功执行减负政策的两个关键洞见:完善的基础设施和双向沟通。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
