1 The Effects of Income Support Settings on Incentives to Work Nicolas Hérault, Guyonne Kalb and Justin van de Ven
2 Objectives of research Key research question: What relationships are described by survey data between benefits policy changes and employment outcomes? Main objective is to improve the existing evidence base for setting the policy levers of income support allowances => Go beyond studies focused on specific policy reforms Focus is on labour force participation and hours of work given employment
3 Analytical approach Reduced form regression analysis of the relationships between income support policies and employment outcomes Innovation: Policy parameters tailored to the individual using a microsimulation model Exploit multiple policy variations observed over a 17-year period in Australia Separate regressions are estimated for six demographic groups: sole parents, single males, single females, couple men, couple women without kids and couple women with kids Effect of policy parameters on hours worked by wage rate quintile (to account for heterogeneous effects along the income distribution)
4 Average Relationship Between Market and Net Incomes, 1999 and 2007, singles Source: Herault & Azpitarte (ER 2015), Authors calculations based on MITTS and SIHC data
5 Policy parameters Three generic variables have been constructed to capture the key payment features of means-tested benefits for each individual: 1. Benefit rate: value of eligible transfer income if the individual doesn t work 2. Withdrawal threshold: the income the individual can earn before reaching the end of the withdrawal-free area 3. First withdrawal rate: the marginal effective tax rate when this first exceeds 10% 4. Average effective tax rate at 40 hours of work We also include dummy variables to account for discrete changes in activity requirements: 1996/97: tightening of activity requirements 2002/03: Mutual Obligations and Work for the Dole 2006/07; reduction in youngest child age for Parenting Payment
6 Control variables We also control for: Age, kids (by age band), education, State & region (rural or urban), ESB Non-employment income and spouse s employment status Macro conditions: unemployment rate and level of the minimum wage Those on DSP and DVA pensions are excluded
7 Labour force participation rates by age and year MEN
8 Labour force participation rates by age and year WOMEN

15 Summary and conclusions Benefit rates (maximum eligible benefits): Limited effect (in magnitude) on LFP Negative for sole parents and couple women Positive for singles and couple men Limited and largely negative effect on hours worked for sole parents and couple members Large positive associations with hours worked for singles that extends throughout the earnings distribution
16 Summary and conclusions Withdrawal-free threshold: Labour force participation Sizeable effects Expected positive association (particularly large for singles and sole parents) but only up to $50/week Negative effect beyond for all groups except for sole parents Hours worked: Most individuals with wage rates in the lower half of the distribution tend to work fewer hours when subject to higher first withdrawal threshold Significant association only for singles Effects diminish at high incomes
17 Summary and conclusions Withdrawal rate: Negative effect on labour force participation Large for singles and couple women with no kids Only weak associations with hours worked Average effective tax rate at 40 hours of work Systematic negative effect on LFP Particularly large for singles and sole parents Negative associations with hours worked Effects tend to increase at higher wages
18 Summary and conclusions Activity requirements: Evidence of positive effects of 1996/97 tightening on LFP 2002/03 reforms (Mutual obligation and Work for the Dole) only associated with increased LFP for sole parents 2006/07 reform of Parenting Payment associated with reduction of LFP => grandfathering dominates Largely non-significant associations with hours worked
