abstract: 'Many European countries have implemented policies to revive their
domestic service sectors. A common goal of these reforms has been to
create employment for disadvantaged groups on the domestic labor market.
I evaluate a Swedish policy where domestic service firms receive a 50\%
tax deduction on labor costs. Detailed data from tax records identify
all formal workers and owners of firms that receive deductions. I
describe the composition of workers and owners in these firms with
respect to three groups targeted by Swedish policymakers: refugees,
people with low education, and people who enter the workforce from
long-term unemployment. I find that the shares of refugees and long-term
unemployed in the subsidized sector barely exceed the shares in the full
private labor force, and fall far below the shares in industrial sectors
with a predominance of elementary jobs. The share of people with low
education is higher than in the full private sector and on par with
other low-skilled sectors. I conclude that the tax subsidy largely
failed to improve employment opportunities among the target groups. An
extended analysis suggests that labor immigration from other EU
countries may be a partial explanation for this. EU immigrants operate
half of all subsidized firms in Sweden''s largest cities and nearly
exclusively employ other EU immigrants.'
