Abstract

"In many European countries there are considerable segments of the labour force that seem to be excluded from steady employment at the open labour market. However, conventional statistics do not grasp the actual length of being without a 'real' job as individual unemployment spells are frequently interrupted by short casual employment, participation in active labour market policy measures or periods outside the labour force. But after interruption, unemployment often continues. We use the concept of 'chronic unemployment' to give a more realistic picture of the share of people with weak links to the labour market in a comparative view. Our study compares the labour market trajectories of 'chronic unemployed' in three countries (Denmark, Finland and Germany) in a longitudinal perspective based on comparable and large administrative data sets."
