+abstract: 'EVALUATION OF ACTIVE LABOUR MARKET POLICIES IN 2009 AND 2010 IN THE
+
+  REPUBLIC OF CROATIA
+
+  Teo Matkovic, Zdenko Babic, Annamaria Vuga
+
+  This report brings forth an evaluation of Active labour market policy
+
+  programmes ran by Croatian Public Employment Service (HZZ) in 2009 and
+
+  2010. We observed whether participants were registered with HZZ as
+
+  unemployed persons at several points in time after their participation
+
+  in programme ceased. Effectiveness was analytically evaluated by the
+
+  application of matching techniques, as we compared outcomes of
+
+  participants with control group comprised of unemployed persons with
+
+  similar observable characteristics who did not participate in measures.
+
+  We evaluated five measures for which appropriate matching could be
+
+  enacted: (1) employment subsidies for the youth with no employment
+
+  experience, (2) long-term unemployed and (3) older unemployed persons;
+
+  (4) training programmes for the unemployed and (5) public works. Within
+
+  the observed period, expenses and coverage of ALMPs were on increase,
+
+  although Croatia still lags considerably in this respect after most EU
+
+  countries. Results of this quasi-experimental evaluation approach do not
+
+  indicate that participation bears a particularly strong effect with
+
+  respect to the observed outcome. Participants in all three employment
+
+  subsidy programmes were less likely to be in unemployment than controls
+
+  for the first two years after subsidies ceased, but the advantage of
+
+  participants was declining over time, and the matching effect is likely
+
+  overestimated as it does not account for creaming effect, as selection
+
+  of (more employable) candidates was done on employer initiative.
+
+  Education programmes on the average turned out to reduce probability of
+
+  leaving unemployment for a year after participation (due to programme
+
+  effect), and within the two years (maximal observed time span)
+
+  probability of being unemployed for participants of training programmes
+
+  was about the same (or minimally lower) than for comparable
+
+  non-participants. However, education measures turned to be more
+
+  effective when certain subpopulations were observed: persons without
+
+  upper secondary education, persons who entered unemployment from
+
+  inactivity (not regular education) and among persons who have not spent
+
+  a very long period in unemployment prior to participation. Participation
+
+  in public work programmes was estimated to have increased mid-term
+
+  unemployment risk for participants, but this has to be understood
+
+  through both programme effect and selection of the most vulnerable
+
+  unemployed in public works. Additionally, higher probability of being in
+
+  unemployment among public work participants when compared to controls
+
+  can be interpreted in terms of activation - if they did not participate
+
+  in public work, more of them might have left unemployment for inactivity
+
+  (which likely happened to many statistical twins with whom they were
+
+  matched). In conclusion, the number of persons who were estimated not to
+
+  be in unemployment due to ALMP participation compared with total funding
+
+  in order to estimate efficiency of spending for each ALMP was evaluated.'
