Résumé

In this article, we present a causal evaluation exercise in the context of statistical profiling applied to an employment program created by La Caixa Foundation and called Incorpora. This program consists of a mechanism of support and repositioning in the labor market of people at risk of exclusion. Our results suggest that the training given within the program contributes to a general improvement in the average employability of the participants in the program, but it is observed that this effect declines with unemployment duration. On the other hand, we find that the Incorpora program improves the probability of finding and retaining employment as well as the time worked and even the salary once re-employed for all the groups analyzed regardless of gender, nationality, previous sector of employment or previous work experience. Specifically, employability increases between 3 and 4 percentage points thanks to the program and the effect on the number of months accumulated in employment is situated, depending on the cohort, between 3 and 4 months three years after leaving it.
