This article provides evidence about the interrelationships between wages and prices at the microeconomic level. We rely on the right-to manage model to specify and estimate a multivariate model explaining the timing and magnitude of wage changes at the firm level. The modeling of price changes...

Les 5 et 6 juillet 2012, la Banque de France a organisé le 18e colloque international sur l’analyse des données de panel, réunissant quelque 180 chercheurs qui ont présenté et discuté des études couvrant un large éventail de recherches théoriques et appliquées. Cette manifestation a...

The acceleration of the firm failure rate in France between 2008 and 2010 was preceded by a surge in the number of firms’ creations in 2003-2004. Therefore, identifying the impact of the 2008 crisis requires to distinguish, among the failures occurring over the period, those resulting from the...

We show that lagged duration dependence is non-parametrically identified in mixed proportional hazard models for duration data, in the presence of competing risks and consecutive spells.

This paper investigates the recent changes in the French wage structure from 1990 to 2008. To do so, we disentangle the impact of changes in employment probability, changes in the levels of education and experience and changes in the price of labor. Unlike other developped countries, we find...

Deux enquêtes spécifiques conduites en 2007 et 2009 suggèrent que les salaires de base sont relativement rigides en France et qu’en réaction à la chute de l’activité, les entreprises ont ajusté les effectifs et les éléments variables des salaires.
