Impact evaluation of active labour market programs in FYR Macedonia: key findings
The key research question is whether participation in the active labour market programs increased the
probability of participants to find and retain gainful employment.
This report presents the findings of the impact evaluation carried out on a selection of active labour market programs implemented by the Employment Service Agency (ESA) of Macedonia during the period 2008-2012.
We evaluate the following six programs: program for self-employment (implemented in 2008), internship (implemented in 2010 and 2012), training for known employer (2010 and 2012), wage subsidy program (2010), training for advanced IT skills (2010) and training for deficient occupations (2010).
