Job Search Monitoring Intensity, Unemployment Exit and Job Entry: Quasi-experimental Evidence from the UK
Because unemployment benefit reforms tend to package together changes to job search requirements, monitoring and assistance, few existing studies have been able to empirically isolate the effects of job search monitoring intensity on the behaviour of unemployment benefit claimants. This paper exploits periods where monitoring has been temporarily withdrawn during a series of Benefit Office refu...
متن کاملJOB CHARACTERISTICS AND INCENTIVES: AGENCY OR SEARCH CONCERNS? Evidence from an On-line Job Board
The results, based on a novel and extensive data set of job positions posted on one of the largest on-line job boards, Monster.com, suggest that an employer is less likely to offer performance-based compensation when filling a position that requires: a) a worker to excel at multitasking, b) on-the-job quality provision, or c) a worker to be a good team player.

Labour market analysis places much emphasis on the concept of search. But there is insufficient empirical information on (a) the relationship between reported search and job-finding and (b) how search behaviour changes over a spell without work. We investigate these issues using a sample constructed from Hungarian labour force survey panel data of the flow from jobs to the state of " joblessnes...
متن کاملJob Search and (Re)employment: Taking the Time-varying Nature of Job-search Intensity into Consideration

In our study we tested a heuristic model that included sets of variables potentially influencing (re)employment. Those were: biographic characteristics, employment motivation factors, job search constraints, and job-search intensity. We expected job-search ...

Implicitly assumed in the traditional modeling is that the agent has no job at all during the search period or her decision on a new job is independent of the job situati...
