摘要：在劳动力市场中，把福利对工作计划的影响以弱劳动力需求描述是很有争议，且很少有事实根据的。通常，我们预期在密集的劳动力市场中，福利对工作具有更大的影响。因为在松散的劳动力市场中，存在着更多（和或许更好）的工作空缺。另一方面，在越密集的劳动力市场中，这些工作计划的附加值可能越低。如果不同的劳动力市场具有不同的失业特征，那么同一个工作计划也可能存在不一致的影响。在本文中，我们研究了一个强制性从福利到就业政策是否对不同地区劳动力市场失业率有不同的影响，该工作计划是1998推行的针对年轻人失业的计划——英国年轻人新政。我们的结论是，随着地区失业率的上升，该工作计划对脱离失业风险率的影响也越大。但是，通过目的地来分解退出就业者，我们发现在地区失业率和该工作计划对退出就业（不就业）可能性影响的规模之间，存在一个负（正）的关系。

Abstract: Whether or not Unemployment Insurance (UI) coverage actually improves unemployed workers' job match quality is an old, yet open question in the empirical studies, although job search theories often claim the positive answer. A major problem with previous research is lack of control for the endogeneity between unemployment durations and reemployment wages, which should be two outcome variables of one single optimality strategy of unemployed individuals. The reservation wage (function) of an unemployed worker should determine the distributions of both his unemployment duration as well as his reemployment wage.
In this paper, I re-examine the impact of UI coverage on reemployment wages using Canadian micro-level panel data (Survey of Labor and Income Dynamics). The log-likelihood function used here, endo
