Cet article propose de tester, sur données individuelles, l'hypothèse d'Oswald, selon laquelle le développement de la propriété immobilière observé dans la plupart des pays de l'OCDE s'accompagnerait d'une augmentation de la durée des épisodes de chômage. La démarche retenue apporte...

L'étude empirique proposée dans cet article s'inscrit dans la lignée des travaux portant sur les effets des choix résidentiels sur la qualité de l’insertion professionnelle sur le marché du travail. Elle se concentre en particulier sur la population en emploi et cherche à connaître...

While many countries have implemented various incentives to promote homeownership, this paper investigates the literature on the relationship between this residential status and the labour market performances. Since the rather negative original contribution by Oswald (1996), the literature has...

The paper focuses on the effects of formal and informal on-the-job training on wages and promotions for men and women. For that purpose, we use the 1999-2000 Canadian Worplace and Employee Survey (WES). Using a simulated maximum likelihood, we estimate a recursive trivariate probit that...

The aim of this paper is to explain the growing wage differentials between men and women during their working careers. We provide a dynamic model of statistical discrimination, which integrates specific human capital decisions: on-the-job training investment and wages are endogenously...

The contingent valuation (CV) method is an attractive approach for comparing home care to hospital care in which the only difference is patients’ well-being during the treatment process and not health outcomes. We considered the empirical situation of blood transfusion (BT) in cancer patients...

Homeownership and job downgrading : our empirical study stems from previous research on the effects of residential status on microeconomic labour market outcomes. It focuses on employees and assesses the a priori ambiguous impact of homeownership on downgrading. We use the French data set of the...

The aim of this paper is to explain the growing wage differentials between men and women during their working careers. We provide a dynamic model of statistical discrimination, which integrates specific human capital decisions: on-the-job training investment and wages are endogenously...

Few studies have explored, to date, the issue of the monetary valuation of non-fatal injuries caused by road traffic accidents. The present paper arises interest in this question and aims to estimate, by means of the contingent valuation, the willingness to pay (WTP) of French households to...

Cet article propose une revue de la littérature sur l'efficacité des expériences de politiques d'éxonérations ou d'allègements de charges sociales ciblées sur les territoires aux Etats-Unis et en France. Elle montre que leurs résultats sont mitigés en termes de créations nettes...
