Route for today
1.Why at all talk about this? 10% of employers report vacancies to employment offices Unemployment spells longer in Poland than elsewhere?
2.What did we do? Reported offers to employment offices and observed
reaction3.How did it work out?
60%: no reaction at all4.Why is it so?
Bad incentives (=legislation)5.What happened next?
Really shocking… reaction 6. Is this important?
Honestly: yes!

If finding workers is costly, higher reluctance to create jobs at all!
Additional fact #4 Roughly 1 out of 7 offers reported is available in the national IT system.
Additional fact #4 380 labour offices, each does it differently
But in public debate: for each bad case, examples of a good one…

What did we do?
1. Went step by step through legislation 2. Drafted four job offers
accountant, sales representative, driver, warehouse cleaner frequent + skill + formal qualifications
3. Pretending to be a (non-existant) company, we sent out request to help fill these vacancies to all labour market offices
by e-mail (perfectly legal) never answered follow-up questions
4. Observed the reaction for two weeks quantified the types of answers (time, equality of access,
clarity, technology, etc.)
5. Sent out a debriefing e-mail (from my account) with an invitation to a survey
questions on how they provide job brokering service to firms reached about 40% of response rate

Why is it so?
Law is unfit to reality outdated (paper + requiring documents) uncomfortable fails to keep labour offices in the market with
commercial job posting service
Implementation is additionally damaging (survey evidence)
Labour offices do not consider GENERAL employers as clients bad experience focus on ALMPs
![Page 12: Experimental evidence on job brokering - presentation to DG EMPLOYMENT](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/557f8fcdd8b42a522c8b4862/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
What happened next?
Coverage by a major weekly Subsequently huge media coverage
evening news for a year media reports (visits with LO’s) interviews with minister of L&SA
/even Trouw /
Joint conference employers, ML&SA, labour offices
… and nothing more: law stays the same, practice stays the same
We are working on two new experiments

Is it important?
Job brokering is the most efficient ALMP, but stays outside the scope of (nearly) all international
comparisons effectiveness measured rarely, mostly in countries where it
already works
Putting numbers on such concrete „things” as response to job postings helps to cut through the chase shows deficiencies of legal design (many legislations are
simply „forgotten”) helps to set standards (in international perspective)
