Description

Using data from three waves of the Restart Cohort Survey conducted in 1989-1991, estimates how advantageous self-employment is as a route out of long-term unemployment relative to full-time and part-time employment, in terms of the time taken to enter a job, job stability, earnings, and subsequent unemployment avoidance.
