Long-term public sector sponsored training programs often show little or negative short-run employment effects and often it is not possible to assess whether positive long-run effects exist. Based on unique administrative data, this paper estimates the long-run differential employment effects of...

This paper estimates the impact of training incidence and duration on employment transitions accounting for the endogeneity of program participation and duration. We specify a very flexible bivariate random effects probit model for employment and training participation and we use Bayesian Markov...

In Deutschland ist in den letzten Jahrzehnten ein deutlicher Anstieg der Lohnungleichheit zu beobachten, der sich bis zum Beginn der 1990er Jahre auf den oberen Bereich der Lohnverteilung beschränkte und seitdem kontinuierlich sowohl im oberen als auch im unteren Bereich der Lohnverteilung...
