In this paper we provide a description of the labor market in the Netherlands. Compared to other OECD countries labor force participation is high and the unemployment rate is low (also for young workers). Among the unemployed there are, however, relatively many long-term unemployed workers....

Estimating Equilibrium Effects of Job Search Assistance

Gautier, Pieter A. - 2012

Randomized experiments provide policy relevant treatment effects if there are no spillovers between participants and nonparticipants. We show that this assumption is violated for a Danish activation program for unemployed workers. Using a difference-in-difference model we show that the...

Simultaneous Search with Heterogeneous Firms and Ex Post Competition

Gautier, Pieter A.; Wolthoff, Ronald P. - 2006

In this paper we study the allocation of workers over high and low productivity firms in a labor market with coordination frictions. Specifically, we consider a search model where workers can apply to high and or low productivity firms. Firms that compete for the same candidate can increase...

Structural Estimation of Search Intensity: Do Non-Employed Workers Search Enough?

Gautier, Pieter A.; Moraga-Gonzalez, Jose Luis; … - 2007

We present a structural framework for the evaluation of public policies intended to increase job search intensity. Most … of the literature defines search intensity as a scalar that influences the arrival rate of job offers; here we treat it … as the number of job applications that workers send out.

We show how small initial wealth differences between low skilled black and white workers can generate large differences in their labor-market outcomes. This even occurs in the absence of a taste for discrimination against blacks or exogenous differences in the distance to jobs. Because of the...

Unemployment and endogenous reallocation over the business cycle

Carrillo-Tudela, Carlos; Visschers, Ludo - 2013

We build an analytically and computationally tractable stochastic equilibrium model of unemployment in heterogeneous labor markets. Facing search frictions within markets and reallocation frictions between markets, workers endogenously separate from employment and endogenously reallocate between...

Wage dispersion and wage dynamics within and across firms

Carrillo-Tudela, Carlos; Smith, Eric - 2009

This paper examines wage dispersion and wage dynamics in a stock-flow matching economy with on-the-job search. Under … stock-flow matching, job seekers immediately become fully informed about the stock of viable vacancies. If only one option … also generates job-to-job transitions with both wage cuts and jumps. …
