Equilibrium search theory suggests that the wage distribution in a cross section of workers is closely related to labor market transitions and associated wage changes. Accordingly, jobtojob transitions are central in explaining the wage distribution. This paper uses the IAB employment subsample...

Diese Arbeit untersucht empirisch den Zusammenhang von Beschäftigung und Lohnstrukturen zwischen sowie innerhalb von Qualifikations- und Altersgruppen. Zunächst werden Substitutionselastizitäten zwischen Qualifikations- und Altersgruppen geschätzt und die Lohnveränderungen bestimmt, die...

This paper considers training, mobility decisions and wages together to test for the specificity of human capital contained in continuing training courses. We empirically analyse the relationship between training, mobility and wages in two ways. First, we examine the correlation between training...

In this paper, we describe the usefulness of stock sample measures for average unemployment durations, when the parameter of interest is the expected unemployment duration. If both job separations and job accessions follow a Poisson process which are constant over time, the stock sample measure...
