dc.description.abstractWe report empirical evidence from the first field experiments to be conducted inGermany with program and control groups between 1999 and 2002. The evaluatedprogram called ?Targeted Negative Income Tax (TNIT)? is a time-restricted employeesubsidy for means-tested welfare recipients. We focus on a unique data set on welfarerecipients in Mannheim and estimate the treatment effect of TNIT on participationprobability. The average treatment effect is significant and lies between 6.6 and 6.8percentage points. Since January 1st, 2005, TNIT can be offered to all means-testedlong-term unemployed people in Germany by public case managers.en
