An Empirical Model of Wage Dispersion with Sorting
Bagger, Jesper - 2014
between worker skill and firm productivity is 0.12. The assortative matching has a substantial impact on wage dispersion. We … differ in their permanent skill level and firms differ with respect to productivity. Positive (negative) sorting results if …-employee data. We find evidence of positive assortative matching.

This paper develops the nonparametric identification of models with production complementarities, worker-firm specific disutility of labor and search frictions. Mobility in the model is subject to preference shocks, and we assume that firms can write wage contracts. We develop a constructive...

The Alpha Beta Gamma of the Labor Market
Gregory, Victoria; Menzio, Guido; Wiczer, David G. - National Bureau of Economic Research - 2021
Based on patterns of employment transitions, we identify three different types of workers in the US labor market: α's β's and γ's. Workers of type α make up over half of all workers, are most likely to remain on the same job for more than 2 years and, when they become unemployed, typically...

Job Displacement and Job Mobility : The Role of Joblessness
Fallick, Bruce; Haltiwanger, John C.; McEntarfer, Erika; … - National Bureau of Economic Research - 2021

Job-Finding and Job-Losing : A Comprehensive Model of Heterogeneous Individual Labor-Market Dynamics
Hall, Robert E. - 2019
We study the paths over time that individuals follow in the labor market, as revealed in the monthly Current Population Survey. Some people face much higher flow values from work than in a non-market activity; if they lose a job, they find another soon. Others have close to equal flow values and...

Search in Macroeconomic Models of the Labor Market
Rogerson, Richard - 2010
This chapter assesses how models with search frictions have shaped our understanding of aggregate labor market outcomes in two contexts: business cycle fluctuations and long-run (trend) changes. We first consolidate data on aggregate labor market outcomes for a large set of OECD countries. We...
