Using two data sets derived from German administrative data, including a linked employer-employee data set, we investigate the cyclicality of worker and job °ows. The analysis stresses the importance of two-sided labour market heterogeneity in this context, taking into account both observed and...

Das Hamburger Modell zur Beschäftigungsförderung zielt darauf ab, Arbeitslose mit geringen Verdienstmöglichkeiten und schlechten Arbeitsmarktchancen durch zeitlich befristete Zuschüsse, die sowohl den Teilnehmern an der Maßnahme als auch den Arbeitgebern gewährt werden, in den regulären...

We examine whether low-paid jobs have an effect on the occupational advancement probability of unemployed persons to obtain better-paid jobs in the future (stepping-stone effect). We make use of data from the German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP) and apply a dynamic random-effects probit model. Our...

This paper assesses whether short-lived jobs (lasting one quarter or less and involuntarily ending in unemployment) are stepping stones to long-lasting jobs (enduring one year or more) for Belgian long-term unemployed school-leavers. We proceed in two steps. First, we estimate labour market...

This study investigates whether and to what extent further unemployment experience for youths who are already long-term unemployed imposes a penalty on subsequent labor market outcomes. We propose a flexible method for analyzing the effect on wages aside of transitions from unemployment and...

This paper analyzes the importance of time aggregation in the measurement of worker flows by exploiting daily information from German administrative data. Time aggregation caused by comparing monthly labor market states leads to an underestimation of total worker flows by around 10%. Contrary to...
