摘要

近年来，通过就业保障(JG)来解决失业问题的想法再次流行起来。批评人士经常指出政府为充分就业提供资金的财政成本和宏观经济影响。在本文中，我们分析了奥地利45岁以上长期失业者的JG的财政成本。我们表明，从长远来看，JG是值得的。即使在经济衰退时期提供的就业岗位数量增加，或者如果政府开始提供一定数量的就业岗位，然后增加就业岗位，JG也会为自己买单。

Does a job guarantee pay off? The fiscal costs of fighting long-term unemployment in Austria

The idea of a job guarantee (JG) to tackle unemployment has become popular again over recent years. Critics often point to the fiscal costs and the macroeconomic impact of a government financing full employment. In this paper, we analyse the fiscal costs of a JG for long-term unemployed people over the age of 45 in Austria. We show that a JG pays off in the long run. Even if the amount of jobs to be provided increases in times of a recession, or if a government starts with a certain amount of jobs and increases it afterwards, the JG would pay for itself.

期刊介绍： The European Journal of Economics and Economic Policies: Intervention (EJEEP) is a peer-reviewed journal which serves as a forum for studies in macroeconomic theory, economic institutions and economic policies. The managing editors aim for productive debates involving one or more variants of heterodox economics, and invite contributions acknowledging the pluralism of research approaches. The submission of both theoretical and empirical work is encouraged. The managing editors contend that a wide variety of institutional and social factors shape economic life and economic processes. Only a careful study and integration of such factors into economics will lead to theoretical progress and to competent economic policy recommendations. This was clearly demonstrated by the inadequacy of orthodox economics, based on neoclassical foundations, to provide suitable explanations and responses to recent financial and economic crises.
