The Study On Effects Of Active Labor Market Policies In Tackling Unemployment

In 2008, the international economy fall down without expectation which deteriorated the exterior environment, the speed of the economic growth also was reduced, all of these made the problem of unemployment in our country even worse. In order to turn the scale, our country decides to carry out the Active labor Market Policies (ALMPs) to accelerate the employment and reemployment. So at this time, study on the condition of unemployment, whether the ALMPs is effective, and if that, the extent they will affect, how are they carried out and so on, which are both extreme meaningful for the establishment of the policies, and the government of unemployment.This paper first reviews the theoretical and empirical literature aiming at the unemployment and its government, educing the popular used methods by most countries-ALMPs. Then analysing the latest study on ALMPs, give out the definition of ALMPs, furthermore give the judgement on which of them belongs to ALMPs. After that, a comparison between different countries on how the situations of the ALMPs are carried out will also be given to show our country's ALMPs' characteristic and deficiency. At the third, using Cox's Proportional Hazard Regression Model with the survey data from Fujian province to analyze whether the ALMPs is effective in improving the probability of employment, and measure the force. Then again put the eyes on Fujian province, to research how the situation the ALMPs are put in to use. Based on these interpretations, this paper explores some channels which could help to perfect the ALMPs in China.The main empirical result of this paper is that in our country the ALMPs do act as an effective methods in reducing unemployment, joining in the policies will enormously improve the chance of being employed for the unemployed person by more than 70% compared with those don't join in. However, ALMPs are helpless in increasing the reemployment salary. Based on the study in Fujian Province, we find that, by comparison, the policies which focus on improving the quality of labor force supply are more effective. However some of policies which aimed at increasing the need of labor force have negative effects. At last, we suggest that, our country should input more money on ALMPs, and broaden the drumbeating, then increasing their cover range; establish especially polices according to the structure of unemployment and the confliction of supply and need of labor force; furthermore, adjust and perfect the content of ALMPs; exert their effects in tackling unemployment.This paper's theme has important practical meaning and also some innovative value. This paper not only analyzes the reason of actualizing ALMPs in theory, but also analyzes ALMPs' function in tackling unemployment. We also use dynamic concept to define ALMPs' scope which accelerates the understanding of ALMPs' content and shows ALMPs' agility. This paper try to use medicinal Cox model to analyzes ALMPs' function in governing umemployment and analyzes its degree, this is lesser research field in domestic research.
