We exploit the social cash transfer programme in Ethiopia to study how an increase in unearned income through a government transfer affects children's work time allocation and their school attendance rate. In rural areas, the transfer led to a half an hour reduction in the total number of hours worked, while in urban areas, transfers had the opposite impacts, worsening the child labour situation with no impacts on the share of children attending school. An insufficient transfer amount and lack of messaging on its recommended use may partly explain the mixed results on child labour and the lack of impacts on school attendance. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

政府转移和时间分配决定:埃塞俄比亚的童工现象

我们利用埃塞俄比亚的社会现金转移计划来研究通过政府转移而增加的非劳动收入如何影响儿童的工作时间分配和他们的入学率。在农村地区,调动导致工作总时数减少了半小时,而在城市地区,调动产生了相反的影响,使童工状况恶化,但对入学儿童的比例没有影响。转移额不足和建议使用的消息传递不足可能部分解释了对童工的混合结果以及对入学率的影响不足。分级为4 +©2020 John Wiley&Sons,Ltd.
