Self-employment dynamics, state dependence and cross-mobility patterns

Marco Caliendo, Arne Uhlendorff

This paper analyzes the mobility between self-employment, wage employment and non-employment. Using data for men in West Germany, we find strong true state dependence in all three states. Moreover, compared to wage employment, non-employment increases the probability of self-employment significantly, and selfemployment goes along with a higher risk of future non-employment.
