We provide first evidence of the impact of over-education, among natives and immigrants, on firm-level productivity and wages. We use Belgian linked panel data and rely on the methodology from Hellerstein et al. (1999) to estimate ORU (over-, required, and under-education) equations aggregated...

This paper is one of the first to use employer-employee data on wages and labor productivity to measure discrimination against immigrants. We build on an identification strategy proposed by Bartolucci (2014) and address firm fixed effects and endogeneity issues through a diff GMM-IV estimator....

Empirical evidence for the US shows that migrants increase the productivity of regions. To explain the impact of … migrants on the average firm productivity we construct a general equilibrium model with monopolistic competition a la Melitz … (2003). We consider heterogeneous firms with different productivity levels and imperfect substitutability between migrants …
