Worker turnover at the firm level and crowding out of lower educated workers
Berg, Gerard J. van den; Gautier, Pieter A.; Ours, Jan C. - VU University Amsterdam, Faculty of Economics, Business … - 1998
In The Netherlands, as in many countries: unemployment rates of lower educated workers are higher and more cyclical … than unemployment rates of higher educated workers. In this paper we test whether this is caused by the fact that more …

Measuring the equilibrium effects of unemployment benefits dispersion
Vuuren, Aico van; Berg, Gerard J. van den; Ridder, Geert - VU University Amsterdam, Faculty of Economics, Business … - 1999
We analyze the impact of unemployment benefits and minimum wages using an equilibrium search model which allows for … dispersion of benefits and productivity levels, job-to-job transitions, and structural and frictional unemployment. The … estimation method uses readily available aggregate data on marginal distributions of unemployment durations as well as wages and …

Multiple equilibria and minimum wages in labor markets with informational frictions and heterogeneous production technologies
Berg, Gerard J. van den - VU University Amsterdam, Faculty of Economics, Business … - 1999
It is often argued that a mandatory minimum wage is binding only if the wage density displays a spike at it. In this paper we analyze a model with wage setting, search frictions, and heterogeneous production technologies, in which imposition of a minimum wage affects wages even though, after...

An empirical equilibrium job search model with continuously distributed heterogeneity of workers' opportunity costs of employment and firms productivities, and search on the job
Bontemps, Christian; Robin, Jean-Marc; Berg, Gerard J. … - VU University Amsterdam, Faculty of Economics, Business … - 1998
In this paper we present and estimate a synthesis of previous equilibrium search models: allowing for continuous distributions of workers opportunity costs of employment, as well as firms' productivities. The model allows for on-the-job search, and we assume that job offer arrival rates for...

It is often argued that a mandatory minimum wage is binding only if the wage density displays a spike at it. In this paper we analyze a model with wage setting, search frictions, and heterogeneous production technologies, in which imposition of a minimum wage affects wages even though, after...
