This paper is asking about the actual used and appropriate data for recent substantive time use research. Emphasis is laid on both, macroanalytic and microanalytic approaches. However, the focus is on microeconomic approaches with topics on time use in the labour market (labour supply) and...

Diese Studie thematisiert den Gebrauch und die geeigneten Daten für die aktuelle inhaltlich ausgerichtete Forschung zur Zeitverwendung. Betrachtet werden sowohl makro- als auch mikroanalytische Ansätze. Allerdings liegt der Schwerpunkt auf mikroökonomischen Ansätzen mit den Topics:...

This study argues that aggregate demand management policies alone (which have traditionally been used to stabilize economies) may not be effective in the current crisis and argues that they should instead be implemented alongside labor market policies such as work sharing programs.The use of...

Using the near universe of online vacancy postings in the U.S., we study the interaction between labor market power and monetary policy. We show empirically that labor market power amplifies the labor demand effects of monetary policy, while not disproportionately affecting wage growth. A search...

It has been well documented that the share of the working-age population employed in "middle-skill" occupations has been falling for some time, while the share in lower- and higher-skill jobs has been rising -- i.e. "polarization" of the labor market (e.g. Autor 2010). However, the dynamics and...

The QE Staffing and Scheduling Methods (QE Methods) were originally developed to optimize staffing and scheduling systems in seven day a week health care facilities, but the methods are applicable to all industries currently operating, or planning to operate, seven days a week.The driving force...

This note presents and tests a general model to help explain why the demand for labor adapts to the availability of labor. In particular, we postulate that the cost of hiring declines with a growth in available labor for two reasons: (1) individuals seeking employment would be coming to...

The present paper analyses sectoral impacts of the CEE integration with EU. Adopting a partial equilibrium model we explicitly model the agricultural sector in CEE. The underlying partial equilibrium model is based on the duality theory. The model captures all key CAP instruments, such as price...
