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. …

EMPLOYER MOBILITY PLANS: ACCEPTABILITY, EFFICIENCY AND COSTS The concentrated and repeated nature of commuting traffic … offers action potentials to control or reduce the number of single-occupant vehicles commuting during the peak hours.

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 …
