Abstract

En octobre 2021, une réforme du calcul des allocations chômage a eu pour conséquence tout à la fois de réduire l'allocation journalière et d'augmenter la durée potentielle d'indemnisation des chômeurs ayant connu des parcours d'emploi discontinus. Dans cet article nous montrons que ce changement de régime a été suivi d'une accélération du retour à l'emploi des allocataires concernés : la proportion d'entre eux retrouvant un emploi dans les six mois suivant leur fin de contrat est entre 3,2 et 6,8 points de pourcentage plus élevée du fait de la réforme. Cet effet est tiré par une hausse des contrats temporaires de moins de six mois. Plus le parcours de l'individu est discontinu avant sa perte d'emploi, plus l'effet est important. Des données complémentaires d'enquête révèlent une pression financière plus importante et des stratégies de recherche d'emploi plus ouvertes pour le public touché que pour le public non touché.
