wave of the Health and Retirement Study, the results show that the wage elasticity of informal care supply is negative and … larger in magnitude than has been found previously. The lower bound of this elasticity is estimated to be -1.8 for males and … -3.6 for females. Additional findings suggest that the wage elasticity of informal care supply differs by the type of …

In this paper we estimate the elasticity of the labour supply to a firm, using data from the Household, Income and … Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) Survey. Estimation of this elasticity is of particular interest not only in its own … immediately losing their workforce. This is in contrast to the perfectly competitive extreme, in which the elasticity is infinite …

labor supply elasticity. For this purpose, we extend the standard labor market matching model to allow for endogenous … correlation of unemployment and GDP, implies an aggregate labor supply elasticity along the extensive margin of around 0.3 for men …

A body of recent empirical work has found strong evidence that the labor elasticity of supply to the firm is finite … inter-war period, we are able to estimate the elasticity of supply to the firm during several recessions and expansions. Our … analysis suggests that the elasticity is indeed lower during recessions, consistent with the comparative statics from the …

Despite numerous studies on labor supply, the size of elasticities is rarely comparable across countries. In this paper, we suggest the first large-scale international comparison of elasticities, while netting out possible differences due to methods, data selection and the period of...
