Beschäftigungsabhängige Steuergutschriften in Großbritannien

Author

Listed:
  • Wolfgang Ochel

Abstract

Lohnersatzleistungen verhindern die Ausweitung des Niedriglohnsektors. Die Alternative bilden Lohnergänzungsleistungen, wie sie Großbritannien mit dem WFTC und seit 2003 mit dem WTC gewährt. Diese Steuergutschriften erhöhen die Anreize für Arbeitslose, eine Beschäftigung (mit mindestens 16 Arbeitsstunden pro Woche) aufzunehmen, beträchtlich. Sie begünstigen jedoch nicht eine Ausdehnung der Arbeitszeit bei den schon Beschäftigten.
