abstract: 'The experience of unemployment itself increases the risk of staying
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
unemployed, and the unemployed face a high poverty risk. Moreover,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
experiencing poverty reduces the chances of reemployment. As wage
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
inequality has expanded in recent decades, low-paid employment and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in-work poverty have both risen. This study analyzes whether low-pay
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment helps people escape the no-pay - low-income trap. Survey data
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
from the German Socio-Economic Panel for the period 1995-2012 are used
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to estimate correlated random-effects probit models on the labor-market
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and income dynamics. The findings suggest that low-paid employment is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
especially helpful to exit the no-pay - low-income trap for persons who
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
are long-term unemployed, as well as for those over 40 who have been
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
unemployed for a short period of time. No indications of a low-pay -
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
low-income trap are found.'
