Original Kurzfassung:
We analysed a new counselling and support programme for people with low
employment prospects in Austria. The Austrian Public Employment Service
introduced regional pilots to investigate whether a new counselling strategy
could improve labour market outcomes for this group. Eligible unemployed
individuals could opt for third-party counselling and support, access a wide
range of low-threshold services, and focus on personal stability rather than job
placement. The goal was to achieve similar or even better labour market outcomes
at lower cost. By comparing pilot and control regions, we found that
introducing the offer resulted in higher costs without improving labour market
outcomes.
