Cultural and economic integration of immigrants in Canada: “Do you play Hockey?” Journal for Labour Market Research Pub Date : 2023-03-28 Irakli Japaridze, Uma Kaplan
This paper studies whether acculturation by immigrants and other minority groups is associated with economic integration in Canada. We examine immigrants’ participation in winter sports, particularly hockey, as a proxy for acculturation given that these sports are popular in Canada but are rarely watched or practiced in the origin countries of many immigrants to Canada. Using the Canadian Community

We use the model to find that the extent of automation through AI will be greater if (a) the economy is relatively abundant in sophisticated programs and machine abilities compared to human skills; (b) the economy hosts a relatively large number of AI-providing

The evolution of wage inequality within local U.S. labor markets Journal for Labour Market Research Pub Date : 2022-03-30 Anthony Eisenbarth,Zhuo Fu Chen
AbstractThere are few concentrated studies on wage inequality across local labor markets at the city or metropolitan level. This paper studies the changes in wage inequality among 170 metropolitan areas by using micro-level data from the U.S. Census and American Community Survey from 1980 to 2019. We propose that shifts in the relative demand for “college-educated” or “college equivalent” workers have

An input–output analysis of unit labour cost developments of the German manufacturing sector since the mid-1990s Journal for Labour Market Research Pub Date : 2022-02-02 Nora Albu, Heike Joebges, Rudolf Zwiener
According to empirical studies, a statistically significant factor for German exports success is high cost (or price) competitiveness. Studies by Deutsche Bundesbank recommend correcting the nominal effective exchange rate by broad cost (or price) indicators (Deutsche Bundesbank, 1998, 2016a). This would call for total economy unit labour costs. In contrast to these findings, Dustmann et al. (2014)

Measuring the effect of gender segregation on the gender gap in time-related underemployment Journal for Labour Market Research Pub Date : 2021-11-28 Acosta-Ballesteros, Juan, Osorno-del Rosal, María del Pilar, Rodríguez-Rodríguez, Olga María
This paper focuses on the impact that gender segregation in the labour market exerts on the underemployment gender gap for young adult workers in Spain. In order to analyse the relative importance of segregation in this gap, we develop a methodology based on two counterfactual simulations that provides a detailed decomposition of the gap into endowments and coefficients effects as well as the interaction

Money also is sunny in a retiree’s world: financial incentives and work after retirement Journal for Labour Market Research Pub Date : 2021-10-07 Lorenz, Svenja, Zwick, Thomas
This paper assesses the impact of financial incentives on working after retirement. The empirical analysis is based on a large administrative individual career data set that includes information about 2% of all German employees subject to social security or in marginal employment until age 67 and their employers in the period 1975–2014. We use the classical labor supply model and differentiate between

KWReq—a new instrument for measuring knowledge work requirements of higher education graduates Journal for Labour Market Research Pub Date : 2021-08-16 Trommer, Maximilian, Schaeper, Hildegard, Fabian, Gregor
Starting from the observation that questionnaires for appropriately measuring the changing working conditions and requirements of the highly qualified workforce do not exist, we developed a new German-language instrument focussing on knowledge work. Based on theoretical considerations, we first identified three basic dimensions that constitute knowledge work: novelty, complexity, and autonomy. During

Place of study, field of study and labour-market region: What matters for wage differences among higher-education graduates? Journal for Labour Market Research Pub Date : 2021-07-13 Silvia Kopecny, Steffen Hillmert
This paper focuses on the structure and extent of wage differences among graduates of different higher-education institutions in Germany. We ask how large these differences are and how they relate to fields of study and regional labour markets. The results from our application of cross-classified random-effects models to a cohort of the DZHW Graduate Panel show that there is a considerable amount of

Effective knowledge transfers are dependent on the cognitive distance among employees. Using longitudinal matched employer-employee data, I measure the portfolio of the skills within a workplace through (i) the workers' previous occupation, and (ii) the industry they

This paper aims to assess the impact of the Moroccan wage subsidy program "Idmaj". It applies the propensity score matching method to the data from a survey conducted by the Ministry of Labour on a sample of eligible individuals. Our results suggest that wage subsidies in Morocco have a positive but marginally significant effect on reducing unemployment and improving employment and a significant negative

On the effectiveness of case management for people with disabilities Journal for Labour Market Research Pub Date : 2021-05-21 Matthias Draheim, Peter Schanbacher, Ruben Seiberlich
Case managers provide individual and comprehensive support to employees who have become incapable of working. Using data from a large insurance company we find that overall, 43.9% of the people in our sample could be reintegrated. Controlling for personal characteristics, we analyze the effectiveness of case management by modelling the probability of reintegrating people being incapable of working

Mapping the (mis)match of university degrees in the graduate labor market Journal for Labour Market Research Pub Date : 2021-05-07 Manuel Salas-Velasco
This paper contributes to the scarce literature on the topic of horizontal education-job mismatch in the labor market for graduates of universities. Field-of-study mismatch or horizontal mismatch occurs when university graduates, trained in a particular field, work in another field at their formal qualification level. The data used in the analysis come from the first nationally representative survey
