This paper studies the determinants and labor market consequences of unemployed workers' wage demands using direct data … on the workers' actual wage requests. Our results show that most workers want a wage close to what they earned in their … as women, tend to systematically demand lower wages. Also, we find that workers with high wage demands are contacted by …

wage losses of workers displaced due to firm closure based on the comparison of workers' wages differentials before and … after displacement. Potential wage losses of displaced workers can be related to firm, job title, and match heterogeneity in … that enables us to decompose the sources of the wage losses into the contribution of firm, job title, and match fixed …

. I construct and estimate a model of wage dynamics jointly with a dynamic model of job mobility. The key feature of the … model is the specification of wage shocks at the worker- firm match level, for workers can respond to these shocks by … substantial. The second result is that true wage risk is almost three times as large as the wage variance observed after job …

We investigate the relationship between an individuals' reservation wage, i.e. the lowest wage acceptable in order to … work which has examined the association between employee wages and unemployment - the "wage curve". …

This paper examines employer-to-employer mobility by describing the individual wage trajectories along the working … the human capital theory. It is emphasized that hopping from one wage trajectory to another by mobility may be accompanied … with wage losses. An empirical review of the model extracts information on whether the between-firm mobility wage …

We analyse a unique data set that combines reservation wage and actually paid wage for a large sample of Dutch recent … proportionality. We find that the difference between reservation wage and accepted wage is virtually random, as search theory predicts …. We also find that most information contained in the accepted wage is included in the reservation wage, as one would …
