%0 Report %A Baert, Stijn %T Wage Subsidies and Hiring Chances for the Disabled: Some Causal Evidence %D 2014 %8 2014 Jul %I Institute of Labor Economics (IZA) %C Bonn %7 IZA Discussion Paper %N 8318 %U https://www.iza.org/publications/dp8318 %X We evaluate the effectiveness of wage subsidies as a policy instrument to integrate disabled individuals into the labour market. To identify causal effects, we conduct a large-scale field experiment in Belgium. Our results show that the likelihood of a disabled candidate receiving a positive response to a job application is not positively influenced by revealing entitlement to the Flemish Supporting Subsidy. %K wage subsidies %K disability %K labour market policy evaluation %K discrimination
