Soziale Netzwerke und Arbeitsmarkt

Bei der Personalsuche und der Suche nach freien Arbeitsplätzen werden von Betrieben und Arbeitsuchenden auch soziale Netzwerke genutzt. Darunter sind nicht nur die persönlichen Beziehungen über Verwandte und den Freundeskreis etc. zu verstehen, sondern auch "technisch vermittelte" Kontakte über Facebook, Xing etc. Soziale Netzwerke liefern oftmals Informationen über den Betrieb bzw. die Person, die über herkömmliche Rekrutierungs- und Suchkanäle (z.B. Stellenanzeige, Bewerbungsunterlagen) nicht oder nur schwer zugänglich sind.
In der Infoplattform ist die aktuelle wissenschaftliche Literatur zur Bedeutung und zum Nutzen sozialer Netzwerke bei der Personal- und Arbeitsplatzsuche zusammengestellt.

    Silva, Marta & Jose Garcia-Louzao (2021): Coworker Networks and the Labor Market Outcomes of Displaced Workers: Evidence from Portugal. (Working paper series / Lietuvos Bankas 95), Vilnius, 36 S.

    Abstract

    "The use of social contacts in the labor market is widespread. This paper investigates the impact of personal connections on hiring probabilities and re-employment outcomes of displaced workers in Portugal. We rely on rich matched employer-employee data to define personal connections that arise from interactions at the workplace. Our empirical strategy exploits firm closures to select workers who are exogenously forced to search for a new job and leverages variation across displaced workers with direct connections to prospective employers. The hiring analysis indicates that displaced workers with a direct link to a firm through a former coworker are roughly three times more likely to be hired compared to workers displaced from the same closing event who lack such a tie. However, we find that the effect varies according to the type of connection as well as firms' similarity. Finally, we show that successful displaced workers with a connection in the hiring firm have higher entry-level wages and enjoy greater job security although these advantages disappear over time."

The overlooked role of country economic development. In: Entrepreneurship and Regional Development, Jg. 33, H. 3/4, S. 287-308. DOI:10.1080/08985626.2021.1872939

    Abstract

    "The success of women-owned businesses with regard to the stages of economic development of countries is under-examined on a global basis. This study explores the relationship between country economic and political contexts and assesses the importance of entrepreneurs’ networks and managerial skills on women’s entrepreneurial success. The research uses data from 22 countries chosen from multi-dimensional country context constructs (i.e., select economic and political factors) and measures both family and external moral and financial support and managerial skills. The results show that stock (managerial skill) and flow (family and non-family support) differentially influence women’s entrepreneurial success in countries at varying levels of competitive development. In particular, the results confirm the positive influence of managerial skills and family moral and financial support on women’s entrepreneurial success (based on annual income) in countries at a higher level of competitive development and confirm their negative influence in countries at a lower level of competitive growth. Moreover, the results reveal influences of non-family financial support (positive for highly competitive countries) on income but not non-family moral support. Public policy implications are discussed." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

    The gender gap in job authority: Do social network resources matter? (2020)

    Blommaert, Lieselotte, Roza Meuleman, Stefan Leenheer & Anete Butkevica (2020): The gender gap in job authority: Do social network resources matter? In: Acta sociologica, Jg. 63, H. 4, S. 381-399. DOI:10.1177/0001699319847504

    Abstract

    "Women generally have less job authority than men. Previous research has shown that human capital, family features and contextual factors cannot fully explain this gender authority gap. Another popular explanation holds that women's career opportunities are limited because their social networks comprise less beneficial contacts and resources than men's. Yet, the role of social networks has received little attention in empirical research seeking to explain the gender gap in job authority. This study examines to what extent gender differences in social networks exist and are related to the gender authority gap. Drawing on two strands of social network theory, we develop hypotheses about the role of network diversity and network status. We test these hypotheses using representative longitudinal data from the Netherlands Longitudinal Lifecourse Study (2009 - 2013). Results reveal that women generally had less diverse occupational networks in terms of contacts' occupations and were less likely to know managers than men, network features which are found to be significantly related to job authority. Controlling for these gender differences in networks leads to a reduction of the observed gender authority gap that is statistically significant but modest in substantive terms."

    Ennerberg, Elin (2020): Unemployment services for newly arrived migrants in Sweden. The privatization and rebureaucratization of the introduction programme. In: Social Policy and Administration, Jg. 54, H. 5, S. 719-732. DOI:10.1111/spol.12571

    Abstract

    "A recent policy reform in Sweden reorganized the management of newly arrived migrants' entrance into the labour market, which resulted in the Swedish Public Employment Service being given coordinating responsibility and introducing private service providers. Building on qualitative interviews with public employment officers and private actors, this study focuses on how the political contradictions in the new 2-year introduction programme are managed at the organizational level. In the article, it is argued that although both public employment officers and private actors experience difficulty separating unemployed migrants' need for social support from the workfare ambitions of the programme, aspects of privatization?such as freedom of choice and the service specification?further complicate this situation. Thus, the individualization aspects of the policy should be viewed as countering some of the more controlling aspects of the reform, thus, in effect, neutralizing its liberalizing tendencies."

    Abstract

    "Jugend wird als eine eigenständige Lebens- und Entwicklungsphase betrachtet. Für junge Geflüchtete stellt sie eine besondere Herausforderung dar. Für sie geht es nicht nur um die Bewältigung alterstypischer Entwicklungsaufgaben, sondern auch um eine gelingende Integration in die Aufnahmegesellschaft. Dazu gehören u. a. das Kennenlernen und die Aneignung von Sprache, Kultur und Werten, genauso die Erschließung von Alltagsräumen und Lebenswelten, z. B. von Freizeitmöglichkeiten, Bildung und von beruflichen Erfahrungsräumen. Die Frage zur gelingenden Integration und Gestaltung von Lebenswelten junger Geflüchteter wurde im Kontext der wissenschaftlichen Begleitung des Projekts „angekommen in Deiner Stadt“ der Walter Blüchert Stiftung genauer untersucht. Der Beitrag referiert u. a. die Ergebnisse einer in diesem Kontext durchgeführten egozentrierten Netzwerkanalyse. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die Angebote den Rahmen für den Aufbau und die Erweiterung kommunikativer, sozialer Netzwerke darstellen und lebensweltliche Zugänge öffnen." (Autorenreferat, IAB-Doku)

    The impact of social segregation on the labor market outcomes of low-skilled workers (2020)

    Horváth, Gergely (2020): The impact of social segregation on the labor market outcomes of low-skilled workers. In: The Scandinavian journal of economics, Jg. 122, H. 1, S. 3-37. DOI:10.1111/sjoe.12324

    Abstract

    "We study the impact of network homophily on labor market outcomes in a search and matching model with two job search channels: the formal market and social contacts. There are two worker types: low-skilled and high-skilled workers. The homophily level determines whether the referral networks of the two types are mixed or segregated from each other. We show that there exists an intermediate homophily level that minimizes the unemployment rate and maximizes the wages of low-skilled workers. Complete integration does not maximize the welfare of low-skilled workers, unless it improves their productivity. We argue that our model can explain the empirical findings on the labor market effects of the Moving-to-Opportunity experiment and the integration of immigrants."

    Jahn, Elke & Michael Neugart (2020): Do neighbors help finding a job? Social networks and labor market outcomes after plant closures. In: Labour Economics, Jg. 65, S. 1-15., 2020-04-01. DOI:10.1016/j.labeco.2020.101825

    Abstract

    "Social networks may affect workers’ labor market outcomes. Using rich spatial data from administrative records, we analyze whether the employment status of neighbors influences the employment probability of a worker who lost his job due to a plant closure and the channels through which this occurs. Our findings suggest that a ten percentage point higher neighborhood employment rate increases the probability of having a job six months after displacement by 0.9 percentage points. The neighborhood effect seems to be driven not by social norms but by information transmission at the neighborhood level, and additionally by networks of former co-workers who also lost their jobs due to plant closure."

    Abstract

    "Between merit principles and social contacts, how they facilitate individuals to obtain a government job in the United States remains unsettled. Based on a survey administered via Amazon Mturk, this study finds that merit-based selection constitutes the most significant means to obtain public jobs, particularly so in state and local governments despite of sizeable respondents claiming other venues. The use of social contacts, including both strong and weak ties, shows little advantage on obtaining public employment but proves significant in private organizations. Controlling individuals' previous job obtaining experience, the study contends that variations on job obtaining methods can be reasonably attributable to institutional distinctiveness that features different rules, procedures and regulations. Merit principles are kept alive in governments, though challenges persist, particularly so in federal government. The study ends up with a discussion of research findings and their implications in HR practices." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

    Abstract

    "Soziale Kontakte können eine wesentliche Rolle bei der Re-Integration von Langzeitarbeitslosen in den Arbeitsmarkt spielen. Sie können etwa Informationen über freie Stellen weitergeben, mitunter Einfluss auf Einstellungen nehmen oder bei der Bewältigung der Folgen anhaltender Arbeitslosigkeit helfen. Die Autoren untersuchen die sozialen Kontakte Langzeitarbeitsloser und prüfen, ob und welche dieser Beziehungen bei der Arbeitsaufnahme hilfreich sind. Haben Langzeitarbeitslose etwa einen Freundes- und Bekanntenkreis, der bereit ist, sie bei der Stellensuche zu unterstützen, verbessert dies entgegen der Erwartung ihre Beschäftigungschancen nicht. Freunde und Bekannte, die bei der Bewältigung von Alltagsproblemen helfen können, erhöhen dagegen die Beschäftigungschancen von Langzeitarbeitslosen ebenso wie aktive Mitgliedschaften in freiwilligen Vereinigungen wie Sportvereinen, Gewerkschaften oder Kirchen."

    Liechti, Fabienne (2020): Connecting employers and workers: Can recommendations from the Public Employment Service Act as a substitute for social contacts? In: Work, employment and society, Jg. 34, H. 4, S. 587-604. DOI:10.1177/0950017019836888

    Abstract

    "This article investigates how employers value recommendations from the public employment service (PES) compared to recommendations from a social contact for their hiring decision. The importance of social contacts in the labour market creates inequality by putting those with a weak social network at a disadvantage. It is therefore important to know if public agencies acting as labour market intermediaries (LMI) can compensate for this disadvantage. This question is investigated by means of a factorial survey experiment conducted among Swiss human resources professionals. The results demonstrate that employers value recommendations from social contacts as well as the PES. However, the latter is not able to fully substitute for the effect of social networks."

    Abstract

    "Using novel registry data on persons receiving asylum welfare benefits in Germany for the period from 2010 to 2016, and quasi-experimental variation induced by German allocation policies, we identify the role that the size and composition of local co-national networks of asylum seekers play for formal labor market access within the same group. While the individual employment probability is not linked to network size, it increases with the number of employed local co-national asylum seekers and decreases with the number of non-employed network members, thereby underlining the central importance of network quality."

    Alaverdyan, Sevak & Anna Zaharieva (2019): Immigration, social networks, and occupational mismatch. (SOEPpapers on multidisciplinary panel data research at DIW Berlin 1033), Berlin, 48 S.

    Abstract

    "In this study we investigate the link between the job search channels that workers use to find employment and the probability of occupational mismatch in the new job. Our specific focus is on differences between native and immigrant workers. We use data from the German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP) over the period 2000-2014. First, we document that referral hiring via social networks is the most frequent single channel of generating jobs in Germany; in relative terms referrals are used more frequently by immigrant workers compared to natives. Second, our data reveals that referral hiring is associated with the highest rate of occupational mismatch among all channels in Germany. We combine these findings and use them to develop a theoretical search and matching model with two ethnic groups of workers (natives and immigrants), two search channels (formal and referral hiring) and two occupations. When modeling social networks we take into account ethnic and professional homophily in the link formation. Our model predicts that immigrant workers face stronger risk of unemployment and often rely on recommendations from their friends and relatives as a channel of last resort. Furthermore, higher rates of referral hiring produce more frequent occupational mismatch of the immigrant population compared to natives. We test this prediction empirically and confirm that more intensive network hiring contributes significantly to higher rates of occupational mismatch among immigrants. Finally, we document that the gaps in the incidence of referrals and mismatch rates are reduced among second generation immigrants indicating some degree of integration in the German labour market."

    Dariel, Aurelie, Arno Riedl & Simon Siegenthaler (2019): Hiring through referrals in a labor market with adverse selection. (CESifo working paper 7610), München, 30 S.

    Abstract

    "Information asymmetries can prevent markets from operating efficiently. An important example is the labor market, where employers face uncertainty about the productivity of job candidates. We examine theoretically and with laboratory experiments three key questions related to hiring via referrals when employees have private information about their productivity. First, do firms use employee referrals when there are social ties between a current employee and a future employee? Second, does the existence of social ties and hiring through employee referrals indeed alleviate adverse selection relative to when social ties do not exist? Third, does the existence of social ties have spill-over effects on wages and hiring in competitive labor markets? The answers to all three questions are affirmative. However, despite the identified positive effect of employee referrals, hiring decisions fall short of the (second-best) efficient outcome. We identify risk aversion as a potential reason for this."

    Social connections and the sorting of workers to firms (2019)

    Eliason, Marcus, Lena Hensvik, Francis Kramarz & Oskar Nordström Skans (2019): Social connections and the sorting of workers to firms. (IZA discussion paper 12323), Bonn, 54 S2.

    Abstract

    "The literature on social networks often presumes that job search through (strong) social ties leads to increased inequality by providing privileged individuals with access to more attractive labor market opportunities. We assess this presumption in the context of sorting between AKM-style person and establishment fixed effects. Our rich Swedish register data allow us to measure connections between agents - workers to workers and workers to firms - through parents, children, siblings, spouses, former co-workers and classmates from high school/college, and current neighbors. In clear contrast with the above presumption, there is less sorting inequality among the workers hired through social networks. This outcome results from opposing factors. On the one hand, reinforcing positive sorting, high-wage job seekers are shown to have social connections to high-wage workers, and therefore to high-wage firms (because of sorting of workers over firms). Furthermore, connections have a causal impact on the allocation of workers across workplaces - employers are much more likely to hire displaced workers to whom they are connected through their employees, in particular if their social ties are strong. On the other hand, attenuating positive sorting, the (causal) impact is much stronger for low-wage firms than it is for high-wage firms, irrespective of the type of worker involved, even conditional on worker fixed effects. The lower degree of sorting among connected hires thus arises because low-wage firms use their (relatively few) connections to high-wage workers to hire workers of a type that they are unable to attract through market channels."

    Pathways to the power elite: The organizational landscape of elite careers (2019)

    Abstract

    "To capture elites, we must map out the organizational landscape through which they pass during their careers. This organizational landscape moulds the character of elites, tells us about the prestige of organizations that are elite incubators and provides valuable indicators about how different sectoral experiences serve to accumulate capital for the elite. Unpacking the organizational experience challenges theoretical and methodological understandings of the elite character, calling for a renewed focus on the organizational embedding of elites after school. By analysing the occupational history of 416 highly central individuals in a Danish elite network, what we term 'the power elite', a very distinct set of career trajectories, running through a subset of large, well-established, interconnected organizations, is mapped and analysed. To understand the different ways in which the members of this power elite accumulate 'organizational capital' in different fields, sequence analysis on six distinct channels, sector, subsector, size, level, rhythm and geography, is applied. Through this multi-channel sequence analysis, 10 distinct clusters of career trajectories are identified, distinguishing primarily between four private sector clusters: corporate ambassadors, industrial inner circle, bankers and landed gentry; and six public sector clusters: state nobility, professional politicians, lobbyists, scientists, unionists, and education and local politics. Analysing the careers, private sector careers are shown to be more homogeneous than public sector careers, while careers based on positions with a democratic mandate, mainly politicians and union leaders, are more turbulent and unpredictable. We link pathways to social backgrounds, showing preference for pathways for the natives in the upper class." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

This article uses the longitudinal Panel Study of Entrepreneurial Dynamic (PSED) II data set (2005-2011) in the U.S. The key finding is that even in cases where female micro-entrepreneurs gained the same number of weak ties and resources from their networks as their male counterparts, their weak ties and gained resources did not help them to improve their business performance unlike their male counterparts.

    Abstract

    "Die vorgestellte Studie hat als inhaltliches Ziel, die Wirkung sozialer Ressourcen über einfache Indikatoren wie die Berufsangaben von Verwandten und Freunden auf die Platzierung im Ausbildungssystem zu untersuchen. Sie verfolgte zugleich das methodische Ziel, diese Platzierung über unterschiedliche „Attraktivitäts“merkmale für (Ausbildungs-)Berufe zu erfassen. Inhaltlich zeigt sich in dieser Studie, die auf einer schriftlichen Befragung von Auszubildenden am Ende des ersten Ausbildungsjahrs in über 70 Berufsschulklassen in Regionen Sachsen-Anhalts und Thüringens beruht, dass Jugendlichen mit günstiger Ressourcenausstattung der Zugang zu attraktiven Ausbildungen besser gelingt als Jugendlichen mit weniger günstigen Netzwerken oder schlechteren schulischen Voraussetzungen. Es wirken also ähnliche Matching-Prozesse wie auf dem Arbeitsmarkt allgemein. Die Ergebnisse bieten eine gute Erklärung, wie sich Auszubildenden in die Hierarchie der Ausbildungsberufe einordnen, wenn man ihre Tariflöhne, die Übernahmechancen, das Lösungsrisikos und die Abschlusszuversicht betrachtet. Dabei liefern Netzwerkvariablen einen wichtigen Erklärungsbeitrag hinsichtlich der Tariflöhne und des Berufsprestiges. Als methodisch problematisch wird die Verwendung von der SIOPS-Werte als Prestigeskalen für die Klassifizierung der Berufe eingeschätzt. Sie tragen den Besonderheiten und dem Stellenwert der dualen Berufsausbildung eher unzureichend Rechnung. Jedoch fehlten Alternativen, die für die aktuelle Klassifikation der Berufe genutzt werden könnten. Zu prüfen ist auch, ob das Konzept der Berufsähnlichkeit in der vorliegenden Operationalisierung (Prüfung ob die Berufsgattungen identisch sind) zu vereinfacht umgesetzt ist. Alternativen könnten der Vergleich der weniger aggregierten Berufs(unter)gruppen oder der im ersten Abschnitt erwähnten „Berufswechselfelder“ sein. Zusammenfassend lässt sich feststellen, dass schon die Nutzung einfacher Indikatoren für soziale Ressourcen ein besseres Verständnis von Arbeitsmarktprozessen erlaubt. Die Verwendung unterschiedlicher „Attraktivitäts“-Indikatoren erlaubt einen facettenreichen Blick auf den Berufswahlprozess." (Autorenreferat, IAB-Doku)

    Abstract

    "Die siebziger Jahre des 20. Jahrhunderts gehörten zur Formierungsphase der Netzwerkforschung, in der Forschungsgruppen aus verschiedenen Disziplinen und von verschiedenen Universitäten zueinander fanden. Ein wichtiger Beitrag waren die Arbeiten zur Triadenstatistik und zur statistischen Modellierung von sozialen Netzwerken, die von Paul W. Holland, Samuel Leinhardt und James A. Davis in den 1970er Jahren und Anfang der 1980er geleistet wurden, und deren Modelle auch als DHLModelle in die Netzwerkliteratur eingegangen sind. Davis arbeitete nach seiner Promotion in Harvard an der Universität in Chicago, wo Leinhardt einer seiner Studenten wurde (Davis und Leinhardt 1967), bevor dieser seine Laufbahn an der Carnegie Mellon University fortsetzte. Holland, 1966 in Stanford promoviert, lehrte in Michigan und Harvard, ehe er 1975 zum Educational Testing Services (ETS) wechselte." (Autorenreferat, IAB-Doku)
