This paper analyses the efficiency of the equilibrium allocation in a matching model with two types of workers and jobs. The basic assumption is that high-skill workers can perform both skilled and unskilled jobs, while low-skill workers can only perform unskilled jobs. Our first result shows...

This paper analyzes the efficiency of the equilibrium allocation in a matching model with two types of workers and jobs. The technology is such that high-skill workers can perform all jobs, while low-skill workers can only perform unskilled jobs. In this setup two types equilibria may occur. A...

This paper explores the efficiency of the equilibrium allocation in a matching model with heterogeneous workers and jobs. In the basic setup there are two types of workers with different skill levels. Both types can perform the simple tasks of unskilled jobs, while the complex tasks of skilled...
