Abstract This paper estimates Japanese labor market mismatch between 2000 and 2019 by using the method of Sahin et al. (“Mismatch Unemployment.” The American Economic Review 104 (11): 3529–64, 2014). We quantify contract-type (regular or non-regular), employment-type (full or part-time), and occupational mismatch and their respective contributions to changes in unemployment. All three types of mismatch show a countercyclical pattern, sharply increasing during the global financial crisis (GFC), but slowly declining during the recovery. Contract-type and occupational mismatch accounted for a significant portion of the rise in the unemployment rate during the GFC, each accounting for around 30 and 20–40 percent, respectively. Employment-type mismatch, on the other hand, accounted for much less–at around 15 perecent of the rise in unemployment for the same period.

在日本,劳动力市场不匹配是一件大事吗?

摘要本文采用Sahin等人的方法估计了2000年至2019年日本劳动力市场的不匹配。(“失配失业”。《美国经济评论》 104(11):3529-64,2014年)。我们对合同类型(常规或非常规),就业类型(全职或兼职)和职业错配及其各自对失业变化的贡献进行量化。三种失配都显示出反周期的模式,在全球金融危机(GFC)期间急剧增加,但在复苏期间缓慢下降。在全球金融危机期间,合同类型和职业不匹配是失业率上升的重要原因,分别占30%和20-40%。另一方面,就业型错配
