We study the long-term impact of job displacement on workers' commuting behavior. Our measures of commuting exploit geo …-coordinates of workers' places of residence and places of work, from which we calculate the door-to-door commuting distance and … commuting time. Using German employee-employer matched data and an event study design, we identify the causal effect of job loss …

home on commuting time are biased downward because most studies ignore preference based sorting (self-selection): workers … who dislike commuting, and hence have shorter commutes, might also be more likely to work from home. In this paper we … percent higher marginal cost of one-way commuting time, compared to non-telecommuters. We estimate the effect of telecommuting …

The time that workers spend commuting to and from work has increased in recent decades in many developed economies …. However, most research on the topic has ignored how a couple’s commuting behaviors are related. This paper analyzes how … husband and wife commuting behaviors respond to job change in the United States. Using household data from the Panel Study of …

In this article, we empirically investigate the relationship between … the spatial extent of local labour markets, as defined by the structure of the commuting network, and the diffusion of …

In this paper, we study the impact of firm relocations on commuting distance and the probability of married couples and … the commuting distance arising from the relocation. We extend the literature on the effect of commuting on relationship … focused on the difference between short- and long-distance commuting, we focus on changes in the commuting distance that are …

This paper proposes and tests an agent-based model of worker and job matching. The model takes residential locations of workers and the locations of employers as exogenous and deals specifically with the interactions between firms and workers in creating a job-worker match and the commute...

We use high-frequency data from location-based mobile phone records to measure domestic air travel patterns of the Chinese population during the Covid-19 pandemic. The travel and tourism industry is a key driver of China's domestic economy and data from this industry helps serve as an objective...

In this paper we analyse the commuting distribution from a job search perspective.We have examined under which … conditions the commuting distribution is unimodal which isone of the stylised facts of commuting. It appears that a necessary … commuting density function as we observe it. …
