Is There a Threat Effect of Labour Market Programmes? A Study of ALMP in the Danish UI System (2006, neutral): “2 ALMP may also be a relevant alternative to Earned Income Tax Credits (EITC) programmes as introduced in the US and the UK (Eissa and Liebman, 1996; Blundell et al., 2000).”
In-Work Policies in Europe: Killing Two Birds with One Stone? (2006, neutral): “However, while the reform unequivocally encourages the participation of single individuals, it is often the case that it discourages second-earners in couples, bringing about a gender bias against the participation of women (see Eissa and Hoynes, 1998, and Blundell et al., 2000, among others).”
A discrete choice model for labor supply and childcare (2002, background): “discussions around the Family Credit and the succeeding working families tax credit in the UK (Duncan and Giles 1996; Blundell et al. 2000) and the earned income tax credit in the US (Scholz 1996; Eissa and Liebman 1996), the policy-makers in Norway aim at improving work incentives for parents.”
The Wage Elasticity of Labour Supply: A Synthesis of Empirical Estimates (2008, methodology): “Studies that use this approach are, amongst others, van Soest (1995); Euwals and van Soest (1999); Euwals (2001); Bonin et al. (2002) and Bargain (2005).”
What can wages and employment tell us about the UK's productivity puzzle? (2013, background): “7 For example, they are often the group found to be most responsive to childcare subsidies (Cascio, 2009; Fitzpatrick, 2012) as well as the in-work support offered via tax credits (Blundell et al., 2000, 2008; Brewer, 2001; Blundell and Hoynes, 2004; Brewer et al., 2006).”
Comparing Labor Supply Elasticities in Europe and the US: New Results (2012, methodology): “As previously discussed, identi cation is often improved by pooling several years of data in order to exploit exogenous variation in net wages stemming from policy reforms.”
Employment, Hours of Work and the Optimal Taxation of Low Income Families (2008, methodology): “Perhaps largely owing to the complexity of the UK transfer system, these existing studies (such as Blundell et al., 2000) typically pre-estimate wages which allows net-incomes to be computed prior to the main preference estimation.”
Demands for Child Care and Household Labour Supply in Australia (2005, neutral): “Blundell et al. (2000) is one of the few studies to look at married men.”
THE LABOUR SUPPLY EFFECT OF THE ABOLITION OF THE EARNINGS RULE FOR OLDER WORKERS IN THE UNITED KINGDOM (2002, neutral): “…similar US earnings test, and there are also parallels with the operation of other benefit regimes, notably those for in-work benefits to low income families such as the Working Family Tax Credit in the UK (Blundell et al , 2000) and the Earned Income Tax Credit in the US (Eissa and Liebman, 1996).”
Comparing Labor Supply Elasticities in Europe and the United States (2014, methodology): “While these features are important in the U.S. context, they are less so for European countries.”
