Employment Fluctuations with Equilibrium Wage Stickiness
Following a recession, the aggregate labor market is slack–employment remains below normal and recruiting efforts of employers, as measured by help-wanted advertising and vacancies, are low. A model of matching friction explains the qualitative responses of the labor market to adverse shocks, but requires implausibly large shocks to account for the magnitude of observed fluctuations. The incorp...
متن کاملWage Stickiness and Nonclearing Labor Market in Business Cycles ∗
This paper presents a dynamic optimization model of RBC type augmented by wage stickiness, and nonclearing labor market. Agents are required to adaptively optimize when facing constraints on the markets. Calibration for the U. S. economy shows that the model will produce higher volatility in employment. Moreover, it provides more reasonable cross-correlation of employment and wages with other m...
متن کاملBusiness Cycles , Wage Stickiness and Labor Market Disequilibrium
Real Business Cycles are often studied in the context of the general equlibrium framework with competitive markets, flexible wages and prices. This restricts the effective application of intertemporal models to the real world business cycles. Stickiness of wages and prices have been considered in recent monopolistic competition models. In this paper, we go a step further and separate labor supp...
متن کاملComparing Two Variants of Calvo-Type Wage Stickiness∗
We compare two ways of modeling Calvo-type wage stickiness. One in which each household is the monopolistic supplier of a differentiated type of labor input (as in Erceg, et al., 2000) and one in which households supply a homogenous labor input that is transformed by monopolistically competitive labor unions into a differentiated labor input (as in Schmitt-Grohé and Uribe, 2006a,b). We show tha...
متن کاملWage Rigidities, Reallocation Shocks, and Jobless Recoveries
This paper explores the joint implications of two assumptions in a business cycle model: the key shock is reallocational, rendering some of the capital stock unproductive while not affecting the remainder; and wages are rigid and do not respond to the shock. In a model with an otherwise-frictionless labor market model, an adverse shock leads to a proportional and permanent decline in capital, e...
