Using the new AWFP dataset that covers all German establishments, we document a substantial cross-sectional heterogeneity of establishments' average real wages over the business cycle. While the median establishments' real wages are procyclical, there is a large fraction of establishments with...

This paper studies quantitative properties of a multiple-worker firm search/matching model and investigates how worker transition rates and job flow rates are interrelated. We show that allowing for job-to-job transitions in the model is essential to simultaneously account for the cyclical...

We document substantial cross-sectional heterogeneity of German establishments' real wage cyclicality over the business cycle. While wages of the median establishment are moderately procyclical, 36 percent of establishments have countercyclical wages. We estimate a negative connection between...

Although the quantitative relationship between employment cyclicality and wage cyclicality is central for the dynamics of macroeconomic models, there is little empirical evidence on this topic. We use the German AWFP dataset to document that wage cyclicalities are very heterogeneous across...

the business cycle features of job flows, worker flows between employment and unemployment, and job-to-job transitions …. The calibrated model successfully replicates (i) countercyclical worker flows between employment and unemployment, (ii …. The cyclical properties of worker flows between employment and unemployment differ from those of job flows, partly because …

In particular, the model correctly predicts that hires from unemployment move countercyclically … through unemployment but is part of job creation, for which procyclicality of the job finding rate dominates its cyclicality …. We also show that the model generates large volatilities of unemployment and vacancies when a worker's outside option is …

We propose and estimate, using Bayesian techniques, a Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium model featuring search and matching frictions with redistributive productivity shocks – which account for fluctuations in the distribution of income across factors of production. We first find...
