Labor market effects of a work-first policy for refugees
估计了丹麦一项要求难民到达后立即积极求职和参加在职培训的工作优先政策对劳动力市场的影响，发现该政策加速了男性进入正规就业但多为不稳定工作，对女性影响很小。
Abstract This study estimates the labor market effects of a work-first policy aimed at speeding up the labor market integration of refugees. The policy added new requirements for refugees to actively search for jobs and to participate in on-the-job training immediately upon arrival in the host country, Denmark. The requirements were added to an existing policy that emphasizes human capital investments in language training. The results show that the work-first policy speeded up entry into regular jobs for men, but they find work in precarious jobs with few hours. Long-run effects are uncertain since the policy crowds out language investments but raises enrollment in education. The policy had no or very small effects for women, which is partly explained by a lower treatment intensity for women.
