Assessment of Active Labour Market Policies in Bulgaria: Evidence from Survey Data

2016 
The paper presents the main results of a research that focuses on the subsequent assessment of all elements (programmes and measures for employment) of the active labour market policy in Bulgaria. The analysis and subsequent assessment of the programmes, projects and promotion measures for employment and training financed by State Budget resources are conducted in the following directions: effectiveness, economization, efficiency, reference to the target groups and relevance to the EU Europe 2020 Strategy. The participation in the programmes and measures has been highly appreciated and is characterized by high levels of satisfaction. The results indicate that according to the experts‘ assessment, the average effect in terms of subsequent employment, which is mainly due to the participation in the programs and measures for employment and training, is high. This means that the people who took part in the programs and measures had a much higher chance of subsequently finding employment for themselves than if they had not taken part in the program/measure.
