The impact of labour demand shocks when occupational labour supplies are heterogeneous

Böhm, Michael; Etheridge, Ben; Irastorza-Fadrique, Aitor - 2025

As technological advances accelerate and labour demands shift, the ability of workers to reallocate across occupations will be crucial for shaping labour market dynamics, inequality, and effective policy design. In this paper, we develop a tractable equilibrium model of the labour market that...

The one constant : a causal effect of collective bargaining on employment growth? ; evidence from German linked-employer-employee data

Brändle, Tobias; Goerke, Laszlo - 2015

A large number of articles have analysed 'the one constant' in the economic effects of trade unions, namely that union bargaining reduces employment growth by two to four percentage points per year. Evidence is, however, mostly related to Anglo-Saxon countries. We investigate whether a different...

Cyclicality of job and worker flows : new data and a new set of stylized facts ; conference paper

Bachmann, Ruediger; Bayer, Christian; Seth, Stefan; … - 2013

We study the relationship between cyclical job and worker flows at the plant level using a new data set spanning from 1976-2006. We find that procyclical labor demand explains relatively little of procyclical worker flows. Instead, all plants in the employment growth distribution increase their...

Job and worker flows : new stylized facts for Germany

Bachmann, Ruediger; Bayer, Christian; Merkl, Christian; … - 2017

We study the relationship between cyclical job and worker flows at the establishment level using the new German AWFP dataset spanning from 1975–2014. We find that worker turnover moves more procyclical than job turnover. This procyclical worker churn takes place along the entire employment...

Aretz, Bodo; Arntz, Melanie; Gregory, Terry - 2012

This paper contributes to the sparse literature on employment spillovers on minimum wages by exploiting the minimum wage introduction and subsequent increases in the German roofing sector that gave rise to an internationally unprecedented hard bite of a minimum wage. We look at the chances of...
