How does small-firm employment respond to exogenous labor productivity risk? We find that this depends on the capitalization of firms' local banks. The evidence comes from firms employing workers whose productivity depends on the weather. Weatherinduced labor productivity risk reduces this...

How does small-firm employment respond to exogenous labor productivity risk? We find that this depends on the capitalization of firms' local banks. The evidence comes from firms offering (quasi-) fixed employment to workers whose productivity depends on the weather. Weather risk reduces this...

This paper analyzes how small-firm employment responds to labor productivity risk. We use highly granular data about firms employing workers whose productivity depends on the weather. This allows us to analyze the effects of exogenous fluctuations in labor productivity risk, induced by weather...
