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 …
