Using two data sets derived from German administrative data, including a linked employer-employee data set, we investigate the cyclicality of worker and job flows.The analysis stresses the importance of two-sided labour market heterogeneity in this context, taking into account both observed and...

The Mortensen-Pissarides model with unemployment benefits and taxes has been able to account for the variation in … unemployment rates across countries but does not explain why geographical mobility is very low in some countries (on average, three … times lower in Europe than in the U.S.). We build a model in which both unemployment and mobility rates are endogenous. Our …
