Book Synopsis A Welfare Analysis of Occupational Licensing in U.S. States by : Morris M. Kleiner

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We assess the welfare consequences of occupational licensing for workers and consumers. We estimate a model of labor market equilibrium in which licensing restricts labor supply but also affects labor demand via worker quality and selection. On the margin of occupations licensed differently between U.S. states, we find that licensing raises wages and hours but reduces employment. We estimate an average welfare loss of 12 percent of occupational surplus. Workers and consumers respectively bear 70 and 30 percent of the incidence. Higher willingness to pay offsets 80 percent of higher prices for consumers, and higher wages compensate workers for 60 percent of the cost of mandated investment in occupation-specific human capital.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study provides new evidence of the influence of occupational regulations on the U.S. economy. Our analysis, unlike previous studies, was able to obtain a representative sample of the population at the state level, which allowed us to estimate the cross-sectional effects of occupational licensing for each state. The state-level analysis demonstrates considerable variation in percentage of the workforce that has attained a license, and unlike minimum wages or unionization, licensing shows no regional patterns in the distribution of occupational licensing. The analysis also shows considerable variation in the influence of licensing on earnings across the states. The national estimates suggest that occupational licensing raises wages by about 11% after controlling for human capital and other observable characteristics. Finally, our analysis shows the influence of occupational regulation on wage inequality across the income distribution.
Book Synopsis The Prevalence and Effects of Occupational Licensing by : Morris M. Kleiner

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study provides the first nation-wide analysis of the labor market implications of occupational licensing for the U.S. labor market, using data from a specially designed Gallup survey. We find that in 2006, 29 percent of the workforce was required to hold an occupational license from a government agency, which is a higher percentage than that found in studies that rely on state-level occupational licensing data. Workers who have higher levels of education are more likely to work in jobs that require a license. Union workers and government employees are more likely to have a license requirement than are nonunion or private sector employees. Our multivariate estimates suggest that licensing has about the same quantitative impact on wages as do unions -- that is about 15 percent, but unlike unions which reduce variance in wages, licensing does not significantly reduce wage dispersion for individuals in licensed jobs.

The Right to Earn a Living charts the history of this fundamental human right, from the constitutional system that was designed to protect it by limiting government’s powers, to the Civil War Amendments that expanded protection to all Americans, regardless of race.
Book Synopsis Occupational Licensing and Job Mobility in the United States by : Mikkel Hermansen

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: This paper studies the association between occupational licensing and job hire and job separation rates along with earnings of job stayers and job-to-job movers. In contrast to previous studies, it attempts to provide macro-level estimates by relying on a novel Job-to-Job Flows database from the U.S. Census Bureau, covering the near universe of job transitions. The empirical analysis exploits variation in licensing regulation across states and industries and constructs indicators for both the share of employment subject to licensing (the extensive margin) and the strictness of regulation (the intensive margin). Results show that more extensive and stricter licensing are both associated with lower job mobility. This holds for job-to-job mobility as well as for transitions in and out of nonemployment. The strictness indicator points to lower job-to-job mobility from entry restrictions and renewal requirements to licensing, while education and training requirements may increase job-to-job mobility. The analysis also finds a negative association between licensing restrictions for people with a criminal record and job hire from nonemployment. Further analysis shows that interstate job-to-job mobility tends to be lower towards states with more extensive and stricter licensing regulation. The results from the analysis of earnings are generally mixed and mostly insignificant. However, there is some evidence of lower earnings gains from job-to-job moves to states with more licensing within the same industry, which may reflect lower productivity growth because of weaker reallocation of labour resources and reduced competition

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study follows up an earlier study in which we examined the scope and burden of 102 occupational licensing laws in the United States for low- and moderate-income occupations. Using data collected in 2017, findings indicate that the licences studied require of aspiring workers, on average, US$262 in fees, one exam, and about 12 months of education and training, plus minimum grade and age levels. Data also indicate striking disparities in requirements within and between occupations and within and between states. A comparison with licensing requirements in 2012 indicates that requirements have generally increased, with the greatest increase being in fees. Among states, Alaska and Hawaii saw the greatest increases in licensing requirements.

Book Synopsis An Analysis of Occupational Licensing Policies in Texas by : Judd H. Quarles
Download or read book An Analysis of Occupational Licensing Policies in Texas written by Judd H. Quarles and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the regulatory efforts of government continue to increase at all levels, more attention is being given to the public policy topic of occupational licensing. Decisions on whether or not to require occupational licensing should be made on a case-by-case basis, after considering the health and safety risks presented to the public, as well as the costs and benefits of such policies. This dissertation examined occupational licensing policies in Texas by using three methods: case studies of six occupational licensing proposals offered in recent sessions of the Texas legislature, an empirical study of occupational licensing in Texas, and an empirical study comparing occupational licensing policies for behavior analysts across the 50 states. The findings of the case studies revealed that legislators in Texas often make decisions on whether or not licensing should be required in an occupation with very little information about the health and safety risks to the public, instances of harm that have actually taken place, or the costs and benefits found where licensing is already required. In the empirical studies, it was found that the best predictor of whether or not licensing would be required for an occupation in Texas was the amount of other states requiring licensing for the same occupation. Despite the fact that health and safety concerns are one of the most commonly stated reasons for individuals and groups to support occupational licensing requirements, occupations with higher accident rates were not found to be a significant factor in whether or not an occupation is licensed in Texas. When comparing Texas to other states, the most significant variable in determining which of the 50 states will require occupational licensing for behavior analysts is the per capita membership numbers in groups who oppose occupational licensing requirements for behavior analysts.
Book Synopsis Occupational Licensing and the Earnings Premium in the United States by : Samuel Ingram
Download or read book Occupational Licensing and the Earnings Premium in the United States written by Samuel Ingram and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using survey data from 2015 to 2018, this article analyses the occupational licensing wage premium in the United States. The estimates show a robust 4-6 per cent wage differential for licensed workers. This premium is robust to careful control for location/local labour market effects and occupation effects. The premium is also positive for the majority of individual occupations and groups of occupations estimated. Similar results are found using additional techniques, including a matching estimator and an analysis of border metropolitan statistical areas.
