Book Synopsis Duration of Unemployment Benefits and Quality of Post-unemployment Jobs by : Jan C. van Ours
Download or read book Duration of Unemployment Benefits and Quality of Post-unemployment Jobs written by Jan C. van Ours and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2006 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper investigates how the potential duration of unemployment benefits affects the quality of post-unemployment jobs. It takes advantage of a natural experiment introduced by a change in Slovenia's unemployment insurance law that substantially reduced the potential benefit duration. Although this reduction strongly increased job finding rates, the quality of the post-unemployment jobs remained unaffected. The paper finds that the law change had no effect on the type of contract (temporary versus permanent), the duration of the post-unemployment job, or the wage earned in the job.

Book Synopsis Job Search and Unemployment Insurance by : Alan B. Krueger
Download or read book Job Search and Unemployment Insurance written by Alan B. Krueger and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper provides new evidence on job search intensity of the unemployed in the U.S., modeling job search intensity as time allocated to job search activities. The main findings are: 1) the average unemployed worker in the U.S. devotes about 41 minutes to job search on weekdays, which is substantially more than his or her European counterpart; 2) workers who expect to be recalled by their previous employer search substantially less than the average unemployed worker; 3) across the 50 states and D.C., job search is inversely related to the generosity of unemployment benefits, with an elasticity between -1.6 and -2.2; 4) the predicted wage is a strong predictor of time devoted to job search, with an elasticity in excess of 2.5; 5) job search intensity for those eligible for Unemployment Insurance (UI) increases prior to benefit exhaustion; 6) time devoted job search is fairly constant regardless of unemployment duration for those who are ineligible for UI. A nonparametric Monte Carol technique suggests that the relationship between job search effort and the duration of unemployment for a cross-section of job seekers is only slightly biased by length-based sampling.

Book Synopsis Search Unemployment with Advance Notice by : Mr.Pietro Garibaldi
Download or read book Search Unemployment with Advance Notice written by Mr.Pietro Garibaldi and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1998-08-01 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper proposes and solves a search model in which job separation requires mandatory notice. When jobs are subject to idiosyncratic uncertainty, firms would issue advance notice even with good business conditions. We show that such precautionary policy is not pursued if it entails sufficiently high productivity losses. If workers can search on the job, an increase in advance notice increases job to job movements, reduces unemployment flows, and has ambiguous effects on unemployment. Results are consistent with the fact that North American and European labor markets, despite their differences in job security provisions, experience similar turnover rates and dissimilar unemployment flows.
Book Synopsis Job Search and Unemployment Duration by : Cynthia L. Rogers
Download or read book Job Search and Unemployment Duration written by Cynthia L. Rogers and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper analyzes the relationship between unemployment duration and the spatial distribution of employment. It builds on the spatial mismatch literature by analyzing the role of access in a job search framework. A unique measure of access is created using municipal level employment growth and a matrix of commuting times for the Pittsburgh Metropolitan Area. Individuals with more access to employment are found to have shorter unemployment spells. The effect of access on unemployment duration is found to be sensitive to the specification of access.
Book Synopsis An Econometric Analysis of Individual Unemployment Duration in West Germany by : Eckhard Wurzel

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In contemporary labor economics increasing attention is paid to the fact that unemployment is not only a stock but also a flow phenomenon. The present micro-econometric study analyses the impact of important socio-economic characteristics on unemployment duration in West Germany. Based on a search theoretic framework unemployment duration is considered as a stochastic process whose evolution is influenced by economicand demographic variables like unemployment benefits, expected wage offers, training and age. This is modeled by application of the concept of the hazard rate which denotes the conditional exit rate from unemployment over time given elapsed unemployment duration. Contrasting more traditional models a semi-parametric approachis chosen which reduces the danger of mis-specification of the stochastic duration process. This procedure also is particularly suitable for the analysis of grouped observations on unemployment duration typically generated by longitudinal data sets as the German "Socio-Economic Panel" which is utilized for this study. Besides deriving a set of empirical results on unemployment duration in West Germanymethodological issues of duration analysis are considered with particular attention paid to the impact of the sample design. Also, important outcomes from search theory and findings from other hazard rate analysesare surveyed.

Book Synopsis Determinants of Individual Unemployment Duration in a Transition Economy by : Vera Alexandrovna Adamchik
Download or read book Determinants of Individual Unemployment Duration in a Transition Economy written by Vera Alexandrovna Adamchik and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study analyzes which factors affect the probability of exiting to employment and, hence, the duration of unemployment spells in a transition economy (Poland). The first empirical essay tests the key predictions from job search theory about the relationship between the duration of an unemployment spell and the reservation wage. We applied a quasi-structural model, and our results indicate that the relationships predicted by optimal job search theory are certainly present in the Polish data: reservation wages directly affect durations of unemployment but seem to decline over time. In the next essay we analyze the impact of unemployment benefits and other factors on the probability of exiting to employment with hazard models. All results indicate that some features of the Polish unemployment benefit system effective in 1994--1997 discouraged exits from unemployment status. The estimated overall effect of unemployment benefits on the probability of exiting to a job is negative, and the hazard rate to employment increases dramatically as the benefit expiration moment approaches. At the same time, restrictions imposed on the level of additional income of benefit recipients seemed to prevent this disincentive effect from being stronger. The final essay presents a new direction of economic research in transition economics, namely the influence of the ownership status on labor market flows. We investigate how a rapidly growing private sector in Poland affects labor market dynamics and, in particular, unemployment. The analyses of labor market flows indicate the existence of a moderate mobility, however, after disaggregating the flows, it becomes clear that private sector employees exhibit greater labor market mobility thin their public sector counterparts. Thus, the newly emerging and growing private sector will make the Polish labor market more dynamic and fluid.
Book Synopsis Unemployment Duration, Job Search and Labor Market Segmentation - Evidence from Urban Ethiopia by : Pieter M. Serneels
Download or read book Unemployment Duration, Job Search and Labor Market Segmentation - Evidence from Urban Ethiopia written by Pieter M. Serneels and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although it is a common theoretical assumption that the chances to find a job fall with time in unemployment, this is not systematically confirmed by empirical evidence, and there is no evidence for developing countries. Using a standard job search model we test the two main explanations why we may observe non-negative duration dependence while genuine duration dependence is negative, namely financial support for the unemployed and a change in the economy over time. We also identify a third explanation which may be relevant especially for developing countries, namely that the labor market is segmented, and extend the classic job search model. Using data for urban Ethiopia we first show that the observed hazard does not fall with time in unemployment for the majority of spells after controlling for unobserved heterogeneity. Using the tests developed from the model we can reject the classic explanations and find supportive evidence that labor market segmentation explains observed non-negative duration dependence, as searching for bad job lifts the hazard over time. Our findings underline the potential importance of labor market segmentation, especially in developing countries, and in particular in the presence of a large public sector.
Book Synopsis Can Institutional Reform Reduce Job Destruction and Unemployment Duration? Yes it Can by : Mrs.Esther Perez Ruiz
Download or read book Can Institutional Reform Reduce Job Destruction and Unemployment Duration? Yes it Can written by Mrs.Esther Perez Ruiz and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We read search theory's unemployment equilibrium condition as an Iso-Unemployment Curve(IUC).The IUC is the locus of job destruction rates and expected unemployment durations rendering the same unemployment level. A country's position along the curve reveals its preferences over the destruction-duration mix, while its distance from the origin indicates the unemployment level at which such preferences are satisfied Using a panel of 20 OECD countries over 1985-2008, we find employment protection legislation to have opposing efects on destructions and durations, while the effects of the remaining key institutional factors on both variables tend to reinforce each other. Implementing the right reforms could reduce job destruction rates by about 0.05 to 0.25 percentage points and shorten unemployment spells by around 10 to 60 days. Consistent with this, unemployment rates would decline by between 0.75 and 5.5 percentage points, depending on a country's starting position.
