Directed Search on the Job, Heterogeneity, and Aggregate Fluctuations
In models of search on the job (e.g. Kenneth Burdett and Dale Mortensen 1998, Burdett and Melvyn Coles 2003, Alain Delacroix and Shouyong Shi 2006), employed and unemployed workers search the labor market for job openings. Workers who are unemployed are willing to accept any job that makes them better off than enjoying leisure and continuing to search. Workers who are employed are willing to ac...
متن کاملLabor-Market Matching with Precautionary Savings and Aggregate Fluctuations∗
We analyze a Bewley-Huggett-Aiyagari incomplete-markets model with labor-market frictions. Consumers are subject to idiosyncratic employment shocks against which they cannot insure directly. The labor market has a Diamond-Mortensen-Pissarides structure: firms enter by posting vacancies and match with workers bilaterally, with match probabilities given by an aggregate matching function. Wages ar...
متن کاملLabor Market Friction, Firm Heterogeneity, and Aggregate Employment and Productivity
The paper is based on a synthesis of a "product variety" version of the firm life cycle model developed by Klette and Kortum (2004) and an equilibrium search model of the labor market with job to job flows introducted by Mortensen (2003). In the construction, a continuum of intermediate product and service varieties are produced with labor that serve as inputs in the production of a final good....
متن کاملTechnology shocks, labor mobility and aggregate fluctuations
We provide evidence on the dynamic behavior of net labor flows across US states in response to a positive technology shock. Technology shocks are identified as disturbances that increase relative state productivity in the long run for 226 state-pairs encompassing 80 percent of labor flows across US states in the period 1976 2008. The data suggest heterogeneous responses of both employment and n...
متن کاملLabor Market Institutions and Aggregate Fluctuations in a Search and Matching Model
This paper explores the influence of labor market institutions on aggregate fluctuations. It uses a dynamic, stochastic, general equilibrium model characterized by search and matching frictions in the labor market and nominal rigidities in the goods market. It finds that firing costs and unemployment benefits can have substantial effects on aggregate fluctuations. Increasing firing costs decrea...
