estimates are extremely sensitive to the treatment of the wages a neglected dimension so far. We show that, e.g., the choice … between predicting wages for the full sample instead of using predicted wages only for non-workers two methods frequently used … increases labor supply elasticities by up to 100 percent. As a consequence, we propose a new estimation strategy which overcomes …

This paper deals with discrete labour supply decisions of different groups of persons in response to a change in net wage rates. The centrepiece of this approach is individuals' switching between working time categories, while facing switching costs that arise when people expand or reduce...
