| Resumen: | The evidence weighs in favour of slightly positive effects more than highly impactful effects of contributory social protection on formalization. Enterprise formalization (the extensive margin) may lead to worker formalization (the intensive margin), but the two dimensions need not be coupled. Different incentives such as individual subsidies or the extension of social protection to dependents may boost compliance and thus formalization. Mechanisms behind the relation between contributory social protection and formalization depend on the study-specific data and methods used. Results vary according to factors such as the country-specific context, the extent of informality and the design of the intervention schemes. |
