We quantify the importance of precautionary labor supply using data from the German Socio- Economic Panel (SOEP) for 2001-2012. We estimate dynamic labor supply equations augmented with a measure of wage risk. Our results show that married men choose about 2.5% of their hours of work or one week...

Die Studie erforscht die betrieblichen Realisierungsbedingungen von lebensphasenorientierten Arbeitszeiten. Den Beschäftigten in Deutschland stehen Arbeitszeitoptionen wie Teilzeit, Elternzeit und weitere Freistellungsregelungen zur Verfügung, um ihre Arbeitszeiten an verschiedene Bedarfe im...

In the past years, work time in many industries has become increasingly flexible opening up a new channel for intertemporal substitution. To study this, we set up a two-period model with wage uncertainty. This extends the standard savings model by allowing a worker to allocate a fixed time...

Welche Herausforderungen und Handlungsmöglichkeiten bestehen bei Systemen zur Arbeitszeiterfassung und ihrer Einbettung in der betrieblichen Praxis? Wo gibt es juristische und datenschutzrechtliche Schwachstellen? Diese Fragen stellen sich gerade bei mobiler Arbeit - und nach dem Urteil des...

Using data from the German Socio-Economic Panel Study (SOEP, 2003, 2005, 2007, 2009, and 2011), the author scrutinizes the relations between womenś and menś flexibility and autonomy in working time and two central work outcomes: overtime and income. Previously, research on flexibility and...

This study examines the effect of working time flexibility and autonomy on time adequacy using the European Working Conditions Survey (EWCS) in 2010. Drawing on gender theory and welfare state theory, gender differences and the institu-tional contexts of the UK, Sweden, Germany and the...
