Abstract

In France, training of recruiters is often emphasised as an effective means for combating discrimination and in 2017 it was made compulsory for companies with more than 300 employees. In this study, we assess the effect of a measure similar to this compulsory train ing by comparing the results of correspondence tests performed before and after implementation of the measure in treated companies and control companies. The results show that the level of discrimination was the same between the two groups of companies prior to implementation of the measures and that the same was true five months later. Double-and triple-difference esti mates show no significant impact of these measures on the level of discrimination in access to employment.
