Adjusting Labor Along The Intensive Margins
Hamermesh, Daniel S.; Biddle, Jeff - National Bureau of Economic Research - 2024
We expand the analysis of cyclical changes in labor demand by decomposing changes along the intensive margin into those in days/week and in hours/day. Using large cross sections of U.S. data, 1985-2018, we observe around 1/4 of the adjustment in weekly hours occurring through changing days/week....

Adjusting labor along the intensive margins
Biddle, Jeff; Hamermesh, Daniel S. - 2024
We expand the analysis of cyclical changes in labor demand by decomposing changes along the intensive margin into those in days/week and in hours/day. Using large cross sections of U.S. data, 1985-2018, we observe around ¼ of the adjustment in weekly hours occurring through changing days/week....

Unemployment and endogenous reallocation over the business cycle
Carrillo-Tudela, Carlos; Visschers, Ludo - 2020
unemployment and its duration distribution. Using the SIPP, we document the relation between workers' (gross and net) occupational … mobility and unemployment duration over the long run and business cycle. To interpret this evidence, we develop an analytically … countercyclical net occupational mobility, the large volatility of unemployment and the cyclical properties of the unemployment …

Cyclical earnings, career and employment transitions
Carrillo-Tudela, Carlos; Visschers, Ludo; Wiczer, David - 2022
This paper studies the cyclical behaviour of earnings risk and career changes. We document that the procyclical skewness of the earnings growth distribution arises mostly from the earnings changes of employer and occupation switchers. To uncover their relative importance in driving cyclical...

Temping fates in Spain : hours and employment in a dual labor market during the Great Recession and COVID-19
Lafuente, Cristina; Santaeulàlia-Llopis, Raül; … - In: SERIEs : Journal of the Spanish Economic Association 13 (2022) 1, pp. 101-145
We investigate the behavior of aggregate hours supplied by workers in permanent (open-ended) contracts and temporary contracts, distinguishing changes in employment (extensive margin) and hours per worker (intensive margin). We focus on the differences between the Great Recession and the start...

Not working at work : loafing, unemployment and labor productivity

While the average time spent by workers in non …-work conditional on any positive non-work rises with the unemployment rate, the fraction of workers who report time in non-work varies … amounts of non-work with wage rates and measures of unemployment benefits in state data linked to the ATUS, and it is …

Unemployment and endogenous reallocation over the business cycle
Carrillo-Tudela, Carlos; Visschers, Ludo - 2013 - This version: January 2013, First version: June 2010
We build an analytically and computationally tractable stochastic equilibrium model of unemployment in heterogeneous … countercyclical unemployment, and is simultaneously consistent with procyclical reallocation, countercyclical separations and a … negatively-sloped Beveridge curve. Moreover, the model exhibits unemployment duration dependence, which (when calibrated to long …
