Article : document électronique
We evaluate the labor market and distributional effects of an increase in the early retirement age (ERA) from 60 to 63 for women born after 1951. We use a regression discontinuity design which exploits the strong increase in the ERA between wome[...]
![Do neighbors help finding a job? Social networks and labor market outcomes after plant closures](https://pmb.cereq.fr/img_cache/pmb5-cereq_record_68470.webp)

This paper investigates whether the employment status of neighbors influences the employment probability of workers who lost their job due to a plant closure, and the channels through which this occurs. Combining rich spatial information with ad[...]
![What makes work meaningful and why economists should care about it](https://pmb.cereq.fr/img_cache/pmb5-cereq_record_68471.webp)
Article : texte imprimé
We demonstrate why meaningful work, i.e. job-related activities that individuals view as purposeful and worthwhile, matters to labour economists. Building on self-determination theory, which specifies the roles of autonomy, competence, and relat[...]
![Job Tasks and Wages in Developed Countries: Evidence from PIAAC](https://pmb.cereq.fr/img_cache/pmb5-cereq_record_68473.webp)
Article : document électronique
This paper addresses the empirical relationship between job tasks and wages for a harmonised sample of 19 developed countries. We do so by using worker-level PIAAC data to account for task heterogeneity within occupations. Our contribution is th[...]
![Timed to Say Goodbye: Does Unemployment Benefit Eligibility Affect Worker Layoffs?](https://pmb.cereq.fr/img_cache/pmb5-cereq_record_68474.webp)
Article : document électronique
We study how unemployment benefit eligibility affects the layoff exit rate by exploiting quasi-experimental variation in eligibility rules in Italy. By using a difference-in-differences estimator, we find an instantaneous increase of about 12% i[...]
![The effects of unemployment benefit duration: Evidence from residual benefit duration](https://pmb.cereq.fr/img_cache/pmb5-cereq_record_68480.webp)
Article : document électronique
We examine the effects of unemployment benefit duration in Finland. Although the maximum duration is the same for all unemployed, potential benefit duration at the beginning of unemployment spells varies, because only claimants with sufficient w[...]
![Hiring Discrimination Against Transgender People: Evidence from a Field Experiment](https://pmb.cereq.fr/img_cache/pmb5-cereq_record_68481.webp)
Article : document électronique
This paper presents the results of the first correspondence study that examined hiring discrimination against transgender people. Fictitious job applications (N = 2,224) were sent to employers with job postings in 12 low-skill occupations in Swe[...]
![Wages, teacher recruitment, and student achievement](https://pmb.cereq.fr/img_cache/pmb5-cereq_record_68482.webp)
Article : document électronique
I exploit a benefit program in disadvantaged schools in the city of Oslo to estimate the effect of increased wages in primary and secondary education. The program’s main content was a wage increase of about 5%. Using a difference-in-differences [...]
![Why do firms (dis)like part-time contracts?](https://pmb.cereq.fr/img_cache/pmb5-cereq_record_68483.webp)
Article : document électronique
This paper investigates the costs for firms of employing women full-time versus part-time, in terms of differential hourly wages. To this end, we use administrative matched employer-employee data on the universe of female workers in Italy over a[...]
![Labor market polarization in Britain and Germany: A cross-national comparison using longitudinal household data](https://pmb.cereq.fr/img_cache/pmb5-cereq_record_68484.webp)
Article : document électronique
Since the 1980s, the share of employment for mid-wage occupations in many advanced countries has decreased while wages for the same occupations have declined relative to the top and bottom of the distribution. The hypothesized explanation of thi[...]
![Gender norms, fairness and relative working hours within households](https://pmb.cereq.fr/img_cache/pmb5-cereq_record_68485.webp)
Article : document électronique
Using data in the United States, UK and Germany, we show that women whose working hours exceed those of their male partners report lower life satisfaction on average. By contrast, men do not report lower life satisfaction from working more hours[...]
![Your wingman could help you land a job: How beauty composition of applicants affects the call-back probability](https://pmb.cereq.fr/img_cache/pmb5-cereq_record_68486.webp)
Article : document électronique
This paper analyses how both own appearance and the beauty composition of other candidates influence the chances of being selected for a job interview. Based on our lab experiment with randomised CVs, we confirm the role of appearance on job rec[...]
![Parental proximity and earnings after job displacements](https://pmb.cereq.fr/img_cache/pmb5-cereq_record_68487.webp)
Article : document électronique
The earnings of young adults living in their parents’ neighborhoods completely recover after a job displacement, while the earnings of those living farther away permanently decline. Nearby workers appear to benefit from help with childcare. Earn[...]
