This study compares the duration of new job matches in the east and west German labour market that formed between the … start of the German Economic, Monetary and Social Union in July 1990 and December 2000. The study relies on job duration … data drawn from the German Socio-economic Panel. It shows with non-parametric duration methods that job matches are less …

Recent labor market reforms in Germany aim, among other things, at reducing unemployment by restricting passive … contribute to the shortening of unemployment duration. For this purpose, we estimate a semi-parametric duration model with three … unemployment measures, emphasizing local labor market policies and re-structuring public employment services. This paper uses …

increased flow into unemployment in a recession is mainly due to reduced hirings, and hence lower job-to-job transitions, rather …
