In search and bargaining models, the effect of higher wages on employment is determined by the elasticity of the job … restrictions implied by such models and to evaluate the elasticity of the job creation curve. The main difference between a job … restrictions implied by search and bargaining theory and, using 10-year differences, we estimate the elasticity of the job creation …

This paper exploits discontinuities induced by earnings caps for social security contributions (SSC) in Germany to analyse the effect of SSC on gross labour earnings. Empirical evidence is based on two complementary approaches utilising two administrative data sets. First, employment responses...

There is still considerable dispute about the magnitude of labor supply elasticities. While differences in micro and macro estimates are recently attributed to frictions and adjustment costs, we show that relatively low labor supply elasticities derived from microeconometric models can also be...
