| Abstract: |
"Since 2006, the IAB develops classifications of job centres, which are
regulated according to the Social Code Book (SGB) II. These classifications
account for the fact that there are substantial disparities in the economic or
social structure of German regions. These disparities affect the work of local
job centres and must be observed if performance figures are compared across
regions. This is accomplished by grouping job centres with similar regional
conditions into distinct types. The classifications are updated after several
years to account for changing conditions. The present revision goes far beyond
a simple update. In principle, it pursues two objectives: for the first time,
all three target dimensions of the SGB II are explicitly incorporated into the
classification process with equal weights. Additionally, the new types put a
stronger focus on factors specific for the job centres regulated by the SGB
II. This report documents the revision in detail and presents its results."
