Our study investigates the heterogeneity of skill demands within occupations, the firm activities that are associated with demand for broader skill sets, and the firm characteristics that are related to particular skills and different combinations of skills. We use a unique matched database of...

South-East Asia has become a key player in global supply chains (GSCs) during recent decades, and the region's participation in GSCs has had a profound impact on labour markets. This paper presents new 2000-2021 estimates of the number of GSC-related jobs in the region, with an estimated 75...

A nemek közötti munkapiaci egyenlőség világszerte egyre fontosabb kérdés. Az eléréséhez vezető útra a koronavírus-válság nagy akadályt görgetett: a recesszió a nőket súlyosabban érintette, mint a férfiakat; ezt a jelenséget she-cession néven dokumentálta az angol nyelvű...

Labour turnover is a crucial element of contemporary economic life. It can improve productivity if more productive workers replace less productive ones. However, in the short run, it generates sizeable labour adjustment costs (LACs), including productivity losses. This paper sheds new light on...

The Levy Institute Microsimulation Model (LIMM) is a tool used for policy simulations to estimate ex-ante the employment and income effects of sectoral investments. In Istenes (2023), a simple implementation of the LIMM for New York State initially had difficulty producing realistic conditional...

Magyarországon 1960 és 2023 között a munka részesedése a bruttó hozzáadott értékből egy korábbi, fenntarthatatlanul magas részarányról a fejlett országok munkarészarányainál alacsonyabb szintre csökkent. Ez a folyamat a multinacionális tőke számára nem korlát, míg a...

This study estimates and decomposes recruitment elasticity, a key measure of employer market power, across job-matching stages using data from Japan's largest job-matching intermediary. On average, recruitment elasticity is negative but not statistically significantly different from zero....

Using register data, we document that the average German labor market, defined by hires in combinations of 3-digit occupations, requirement levels, and commuting zones, is highly concentrated (HHI=0.257). By EU antitrust thresholds, 56 percent of these labor markets feature moderate or high...

Az értékek, gondolkodásmódok és preferenciák tekintetében jelentősen eltérő generációk együttműködésének lehetőségét egyre nehezebb megteremteni egy munkahelyen. A generációk között szélesedő szakadék okán azt lájuk, hogy komplex, sok esetben egyénre szabott...

As technological advances accelerate and labour demands shift, the ability of workers to reallocate across occupations will be crucial for shaping labour market dynamics, inequality, and effective policy design. In this paper, we develop a tractable equilibrium model of the labour market that...

We analyse the moderating effect of trade unions on industrial employment and unemployment in countries facing exposure to industrial robots. Applying random effects within-between regression to a pseudo-panel of observations from 28 advanced democracies over 1998-2019, we find that stronger...

Under the impetus of Edward Lazear, personnel economics has established itself as a particularly dynamic area of mainstream labour economics. It aspires to provide the best solutions to the practical problems that human resource managers encounter. The following paper aims to do the following:...

We assess whether online data on vacancies and applications to a job board are a suitable source for studying skills dynamics outside of Europe and the United States, where a rich literature has examined skills dynamics using online vacancy data. Yet, the knowledge on skills dynamics is scarce...

A mindennapokban gyakori, hogy az eltérő életkorú személyek közötti félreértésekre azonnal a generációkkal kapcsolatos jogos vagy jogtalan sztereotípiákban keressük a választ. A születési évszámokhoz köthető társadalmi generációk jelenléte széles körűen elfogadott...

The study aims in analyzing the role of workplace stressors on occupational stress levels. A descriptive and explanatory research design has been used. A mean scale as a measure of central tendency was used to explain the existing situation. Correlation and multiple regression have been...

The aim of this paper is to investigate how commonly used 2D digital layouts can be transformed into 3-dimensional dashboards with the effect of reducing cognitive load. To this end, we compared user performance metrics, pupil dilation data as well as subject-reported qualitative measures in a...

A tanulmány azt vizsgálja, hogy a munkavállalók és a járások szintjén megfigyelt béregyenlőtlenségeknek mekkora hányadát magyarázzák a munkavállalói és a munkáltatói jellemzők, illetve a térségek eltérő adottságai. A szerzők ehhez a bértarifa-felvételt és az OPTEN...

Coworking spaces and the creative industries represent a rapidly growing but highly diverse shared economy sector. The paper outlines the types of incremental or radical forms of change developed that lead to industrial–institutional coevolution based on evidence from selected cities in...

Which governments implement interventionist or liberalising labour policy reforms, and does the economic context matter? Drawing on the previous literature on government ideology and public policy, we hypothesise that leftist governments are more likely to implement interventionist labour...

What is the effect of minority co-ethnic employment on income? While the business organizations literature argues diversity allows for knowledge accumulation, optimal labour allocation, and efficient interactions, absent is any consideration of language– e.g. language competency or language...

Háttér és célkitűzések: Csendes kilépés alatt azt értjük, amikor egy munkavállaló hivatalosan nem hagyja el a szervezetet, amelyben dolgozik, de mindenben a kötelező minimum teljesítésére törekszik csupán. A fogalom 2022 nyarán kezdett terjedni először a közösségi...

Tanulmányunkban az atipikus munkavégzési formákkal mint a nők munkavállalási hajlandóságának potenciális ösztönzőjével foglalkozunk. Kutatási kérdésünkkel arra keressük a választ, hogy milyen specifikus személyes jellemzői azonosíthatók azon nőknek, akik atipikus...

Labor economics often assumes that wages w are equal to the marginal revenue product of labor MRP L. However, recent literature has shown that firms' market power allows them to pay wages substantially below marginal productivity. The markdown (MRP L - w)/w is our preferred measure of firms'...

Recent research documents mounting evidence for sizable and persistent biases in individual labor market expectations. This paper incorporates subjective expectations into a general equilibrium labor market model and analytically studies the implications of biased expectations for wage...

This chapter traces the evolution of the study of gender in the labor market, focusing on how academic thinking on this topic has evolved alongside real world developments in gender inequality from the 1980s to the present. We present a simple model of female labor supply to illustrate how...

We model monopsony on the labor market using a separable matching model a la Choo and Siow (2006). We propose a simple method that estimates 1) the multidimensional determinants of productivity and non-wage preferences separately and 2) the variance of unobserved heterogeneity on both sides of...

Labor economists increasingly work in empirical contexts with large numbers of unit-specific parameters. These settings include a growing number of value-added studies measuring causal effects of individual units like firms, managers, neighborhoods, teachers, schools, doctors, hospitals, police...

Disruptions of labor market trajectories have lasting effects on later economic success. One type of disruption that is understudied is displacement due to forced labor conscription, despite it still being a frequent event nowadays. I study the consequences of exposure to forced labor...

The neoclassical growth model assumes fixed labor supply and competitive labor markets. Is it harmless to ignore monopsonistic power in the neoclassical growth model? The paper argues that it is not, especially if a growth model needs to be consistent with the long-run dynamics of the labor...

Minimum wages decrease employment in competitive markets, but can increase it in monopsonistic markets so long as they do not exceed the marginal product of labour. We find evidence of non-monotonicity both by market structure and minimum wage level. Minimum wage hikes initially increase hours...
