We combine micro and macro unemployment duration data to study the effects of the business cycle on the outflow from … unemployment. We allow the cycle to affect individual exit probabilities of unemployed workers as well as the composition of the … total inflow into unemployment. We estimate the model using (micro) survey data and (macro) administrative data from France …

Labor market theories allowing for search frictions make marked predictions on the effect of the degree of frictions on wages. Often, the effect is predicted to be negative. Despite the popularity of these theories, this has never been tested. We perform tests with matched worker-firm data. The...

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...
