Job Turnover, Unemployment and Labor Market Institutions
This paper studies the role of labor market institutions on unemployment and on the cyclical properties of job flows. We construct an intertemporal general equilibrium model with search unemployment and endogenous job turnover, and examine the consequences of introducing an unemployment benefit, a firing cost and a downward wage rigidity. The model is able to reproduce the main cyclical propert...
متن کاملCareer Choice and the Risk Premium in the Labor Market
Is risk priced in the labor market? We document a strong, robust, and positive correlation between average earnings and the variance of both temporary and permanent idiosyncratic shocks to earnings across 21 US industries. However, since workers are heterogeneous in their abilities, the correlation may be entirely driven by selection. What portion of the correlation is compensation for risk and...

It uses the estimated model to decompose the firm-size pay gap into five sources, namely: (1) utility from working, (2) divergence in incentives, (3) monitoring, (4) demand, and (5) human-capital accumulation. It finds no...

Value fluctuations of single products, combined with the condition of maximum profit in transactions, readily lead to persistent fluctuations in the wealth of individual agents.
متن کاملIndirect benefits of infrastructure improvement in the case of an imperfect labor market
We perform a welfare analysis of transport infrastructure improvements in the presence of an imperfect labor market, allowing for endogenous wages and involuntary unemployment. Efficiency wage setting is incorporated in a spatial two-region general equilibrium model, written as a welfare program. In our model, firms set wages above the market clearing level to create an inducement for employees...
