wages are rigid. We explore whether this explanation is consistent with the data. We show that the wage of newly hired … workers, unlike the aggregate wage, is volatile and responds one-to-one to changes in labor productivity. In order to … jobs. This form of wage rigidity does not affect job creation and thus cannot explain the unemployment volatility puzzle. …

In employment relationships, a wage is an installment payment on an implicit long-term agreement between a worker and a … firm. The price of labor that impacts firm's hiring decisions, instead, reflects the hiring wage as well as the impact of … substantially more pro-cyclical than the new-hire wage or the average wage.
