We address the presence, magnitude, and composition of wage gains related to former co-workers and discuss the mechanisms that could explain their existence. Using Hungarian linked employer-employee administrative data and proxying actual co-workership with overlapping work histories, we show...

Better workers move to better firms : a simple test to identify sorting

Bartolucci, Cristian; Devicienti, Francesco - 2013

We propose a simple test that uses information on workers' mobility, wages and firms' profits to identify the sign and strength of assortative matching. The basic intuition underlying our empirical strategy is that, in the presence of positive (negative) assortative matching, good workers are...
