How important is imperfect competition in the product market for employment dynamics? To investigate this, we formulate … a theoretical model of employment adjustment with imperfect competition in the product market, search frictions, and … convex adjustment costs. From this model, we derive a structural equation for employment that we estimate on firm-level data …

This paper uses normalized constant elasticity of substitution production functions to estimate the elasticity of substitution and labour-augmenting technical change in South Africa over the period 1994-2012. We find elasticities of 0.6-0.9 and positive labour-augmenting technical change, which...
