?:abstract
  • Employment may be important to wellbeing for reasons beyond its role as an income source. This paper presents a causal estimate of the psychosocial value of employment in refugee camps in Bangladesh. We involve 745 individuals in a field experiment with three arms: a control arm, a weekly cash arm, and an employment arm of equal value. Employment raises psychosocial wellbeing substantially more than cash alone, and 66% of the employed are willing to forego cash payments to continue working temporarily for free. Despite material poverty, those in our context both experience and recognize a non-monetary, psychosocial value to employment. (xsd:string)
