Abstract

"In the German welfare system, the job centers are to conclude an integration agreement with all beneficiaries who are capable of working. The agreement defines the rights and obligations of both parties to the contract. It is questionable to what extent integration agreements contribute to the integration of job seekers into the labor market. In a pilot project in seven job centers, it was therefore randomly determined whether people in the first six months of receiving unemployment benefit II should receive a) a standard integration agreement with legal consequences, b) an integration agreement without legal consequences, or c) no integration agreement at all. In the first six months, groups b) and c) should accordingly not receive any sanctions due to violations of obligations. The evaluations do not indicate that group assignment – and thus the likelihood of early conclusion of an integration agreement with or without instruction on legal consequences – has had significant effects on the labor market outcomes considered here."
