We present a structural empirical model of collective household labour supply. Following recent developments in the literature on collective household labour supply our model allows for the nonparticipation decision, along with the choice of working hours. We use the theoretical framework for...

In this paper we present an empirical structural job search model with endogenously determined search intensity. The model describes both the behaviour of unemployed job searchers and on-the-job search. We use data on various indicators (or search channels) for the intensity of search, like the...

This paper investigates the consumption and savings behaviour of individuals that have experienced a job loss. Building on the scant literature on the issue, we test for the impact of unemployment benefits on consumption levels of the unemployed. We also expand on previous work in this area by...

We consider a utility consistent static labor supply model with flexible preferences, a non-linear and possibly non-convex budget set, and a wage equation. Three stochastic error terms are introduced to represent respectively optimization and reporting errors, stochastic preferences, and...
