abstract: 'This article studies the economic effects of disabled members on Italian
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
households, with the aim of identifying a suitable target group for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
welfare policies. Survey of Households Income and Wealth data for the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
year 2000 is used. Preliminary results show significant differences in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
levels of income and poverty diffusion to the detriment of households
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
with disabled members. We propose an exogenous explanation: the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
replacement ratio between disability benefits and expected labour income
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
shows that disability benefits do not compensate the potential incomes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of the disabled person and of the possible carer, except in households
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
with severe socioeconomic disadvantages. We also propose an endogenous
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
explanation: applying a logit model we show that the labour market
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
participation of the possible carer is reduced in households with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
disabled persons. In order to increase the income of the households with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
disabled members, policy recommendations include the provision of care
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
services and structural policies to improve employment, income and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
educational opportunities for households at greatest disadvantage.'
