This paper investigates alternative types of employment introduced or changed by the latest labor market reforms in Germany ("Hartz-reforms"). Specifically, we investigate whether and to which extent the reform of temporary work and the reduction of social security contributions for socalled Mini- and Midijobs impinge upon the economy-wide level and structure of these jobs. Our econometric results suggest that all three employment types increased due to the reforms. The largest effect can be observed for Minijobs. Furthermore, different surveys among firms, workers in Midijobs, labor agencies and others indicate rather modest effects on unemployment for all types of alternative employment.
