Automation risk prevails less in large cities compared to small but little is known about the drivers of this emerging urban phenomenon. A major challenge that automation quantified by work-related tasks allows for measurement through occupation, which turn implicitly related local economic structure and individual career paths. This paper examines role working on changes mobility. Using panel ...

As scientists’ careers unfold, mobility can allow researchers to find environments where they are more productive and more effectively contribute to the generation of new knowledge. In this paper, we examine the determinants of mobility of elite academics within the life sciences, including individual productivity measures and for the first time, measures of the peer environment and family fact...

In 1942 more than 110,000 persons of Japanese origin living on the U.S. West Coast were forcibly sent away to ten internment camps for one three years. This paper studies how internees’ careers affected in long run. Combining Census data, camp records, and survey I develop a predictor person’s status based observables. Using difference-in-differences framework, find that had long-run positive e...

This brief discusses the policy implications of a research study commissioned by Health Workforce Australia (HWA) within its health workforce innovation and reform work program. The project explored conceptually complex and operationally problematic concepts related to developing a whole-of-workforce competency-based education and training and competency-based career framework for the Australia...

This piece of work is aimed at studying the rewards to job mobility and whether it is a proper tool to experience wage growth and escaping situations of low-paid jobs. The data-base used will be the European Community Household Panel Survey, from which a sample of young people (under 30 in 1994) from thirteen different countries has been drawn. The selected technique will be a fixed-effects mod...

Although there is a rich literature on the rate of occupational mobility, there are important gaps in understanding patterns of movement among occupations. We employ a network based approach to explore occupational mobility of the Romanian university graduates in the first years after graduation (2003 2008). We use survey data on their career mobility to build an empirical occupational mobility...
