We present identification and estimation results for the “collective” model of labour supply in which there are discrete choices, censoring of hours, and non-participation in employment. We derive the collective restrictions on labour supply functions and contrast them with restrictions...

In this paper we extend the "collective" model of labour supply developed by Chiappori (1988) to allow for discrete choices, censoring and nonparticipation in employment. We derive the collective restrictions on labour supply functions that we contrast with restrictions implied by the usual...

In this paper we develop the collective labour supply framework to allow for corner solutions and nonparticipation in employment.We derive conditions for the complete non parametric identification of individual preferences.We extend our results to allow for unobserved heterogeneity and show...

A model is developed that allows for a lay-off rate and a job arrival rate in the intertemporal choice of consumption and labor market state. The identification of such a model is established without recourse to dynamic programming solutions and the minimum date requirements for estimation are...
