commuting are negatively related, and thus the probability of self-employment decreases with "expected" commuting time. We use … metropolitan areas in the US, focusing on the relationship between commuting time and the probability of self-employment. Our … empirical results show that the probability of self-employment is negatively related to the "expected" commuting time, giving …

In this paper, we employ search theory as a micro-economic foundation for the wasteful commuting hypothesis. It is … empirical analysis, the extent of the ‘wasteful commuting’ is identified by estimating the difference in the commute of …

In this paper, we propose a new spatial framework to model excess commuting of workers and we show empirical … their commuting time, employees do not minimize their commuting time because they lack full information, and thus the … difference between the time devoted to commuting by self-employed workers and employees is modeled as wasteful commuting (i …

In this paper, we propose a new spatial framework to model excess commuting of workers and we show empirical … their commuting time, employees do not minimize their commuting time because they lack full information, and thus the … difference between the time devoted to commuting by self-employed workers and employees is modeled as wasteful commuting (i …

This paper explores the commuting behavior of workers in Western European countries, with a focus on the differences in … commuting time between employees and the self-employed in these countries. Using data from the last wave of the European Working … Conditions Survey (2015), we analyze the commuting behavior of workers, finding that male and female self-employed workers devote …

This paper analyzes the commuting behavior of employee and self-employed workers in urban areas of eleven Latin … American countries, within a theoretical framework that identifies employees' excess commuting as different from self …-employed workers' commuting. Using data from the ECAF data, results show that employees spend about 8.2 more minutes commuting to work …
