The paper investigates exit probabilities of registered unemployed to active labour market programmes using administrative records from the unemployment register of the Hungarian National Labour Centre. We estimate parametric duration models that summarise variation in exit probabilities with...

The low level of job search is a unique feature of the Hungarian labour market compared to other former communist countries. The paper looks at search intensity among the non-employed using micro-data of the European Labour Force Survey. A section comparing Hungary, Poland and Slovakia in detail...

In this study we explore the job search behavior of the unemployed using 16 waves of Labor Force Survey between 2010 and 2013. According to our results if unemployed individual was previously public workers, then it increases the likelihood that he search for a job through public employment...

We extend the benchmark model of Aghion and Blanchard (1994) assuming two segments of the emerging private sector that differ in workers' productivity. We look at the paths of employment, wages, taxes, labor costs and profits during and after the transition, up until the shock is fully absorbed....

Analyses of the Hungarian employment situation are almost always concerned only with the change in the number of the employed, unemployed and inactive, not paying particular attention to the flows between these states. This paper discusses a method of calculating labour market flows in a...
