Structural labour supply models and microsimulation

Aaberge, Rolf; Colombino, Ugo - 2018

The purpose of the paper is to provide a discussion of the various approaches for accounting for labour supply responses in microsimulation models. The paper focuses attention on two methodologies for modelling labour supply: the discrete choice model and the random utility - random...

Do financial incentives influence GPs' decisions to do after-hours work? : a discrete choice labour supply model

Broadway, Barbara; Kalb, Guyonne; Li, Jinhu; Scott, Anthony - 2016

This paper analyses doctors' supply of after-hours care, and how it is affected by personal and family circumstances as well as the earnings structure. We use detailed survey data from a large sample of Australian General Practitioners to estimate a structural, discrete-choice model of labour...

Getting tired of work, or re-tiring in absence of decent job opportunities? Some insights from an estimated random utility/random opportunity model on Belgian data

Capéau, Bart; Decoster, André - 2016

This paper exploits the distinction between preference and opportunity factors in a Random Utility and Random Opportunity (RURO) model of job choice (Aaberge, Dagsvik and Strøm, 1995, and Aaberge, Colombino and Strøm, 1999). We estimate the model on Belgian data (SILC 2007). To investigate to...

Welfare effects of tax policy change when there are choice restrictions on labour supply

Jia, Zhiyang; Thoresen, Thor Olav - 2021

Information about individual choices of heterogeneous agents. Results can for example be used to describe the distributional effects of tax policy change, such as the effects on changes in money metric utility - distributions of equivalent and compensating variation (EV or CV). This type of...

Dealing with negative marginal utilities in the discrete choice modelling of labour supply

Liégeois, Philippe; Islam, Nizamul - 2010

In discrete choice labour supply analysis, it is often reasonably expected that utility is increasing with income. Yet, analyses based on discrete choice models sometimes mention that, when no restriction is imposed a priori in the statistical optimization program, the monotonicity condition is...
