Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Labour market policies are a topic of debate in all countries that has become increasingly relevant during the recent crises. This study aims to assess the impact of labour market policies on labour market outcomes. The empirical analysis is based on a panel data model with fixed effects for the studied OECD countries. The analysis indicates that higher levels of public spending on labour market policy are associated with improved labour market outcomes. The results also suggest that higher unionisation among employees promotes job-seeking and engagement in the workforce. Based on the results for disaggregated active labour market policies, it can be supposed that training and employment incentives show the most beneficial results, both in terms of reducing unemployment and increasing employment and participation. Thus, our results suggest that labour market policies play an important role in terms of labour market outcomes in OECD countries.
