Berufliche Mobilität
Eine Tätigkeit, die mehr Spaß verspricht, ein höheres Gehalt oder bessere Entwicklungsperspektiven: Es gibt viele Gründe, nicht länger im erlernten oder ausgeübten Beruf tätig zu sein. Nicht immer sind sie jedoch so erfreulich: Auslöser kann auch eine Entlassung sein.
Dieses Themendossier bietet Literaturhinweise zur beruflichen Mobilitätsforschung in Deutschland und in anderen Ländern. Sie erschließt theoretische Ansätze und empirische Ergebnisse - beispielsweise zu den Fragen: Sind Berufswechsel lohnend? Für wen sind sie mit besonderen Risiken verbunden? Wie gut lassen sich bei einem beruflichen Neustart die bisher erworbenen Qualifikationen verwerten?

Equilibrium Job Turnover and the Business Cycle (2021)
Zitatform
Carrillo-Tudela, Carlos, Alex Clymo & Melvyn Coles (2021): Equilibrium Job Turnover and the Business Cycle. (IZA discussion paper 14869), Bonn, 65 S.
Abstract
"This paper develops and estimates a fully microfounded equilibrium business cycle model of the US labor market with aggregate productivity shocks. Those microfoundations are consistent with evidence regarding the underlying distribution of firm growth rates across firms [by age and size] and, when aggregated, are consistent with macro-evidence regarding gross job creation and job destruction flows over the cycle. By additionally incorporating on-the-job search, we systematically characterise the stochastic relationships between aggregate job creation and job destruction flows across firms, gross hire and quit flows [churning] by workers across firms, as well as the persistence and volatility of unemployment and worker job finding rates over the cycle."

(OECD Economics Department working papers 1656), Paris, 45 S. DOI:10.1787/4c6131e3-en
Abstract
"Differences in average wages across firms – which account for around one-half of overall wage inequality – are mainly explained by differences in firm wage premia (the part of wages that depends exclusively on characteristics of firms) rather than workforce composition. Using a new cross-country dataset of linked employer-employee data, this paper investigates the role of cross-firm dispersion in productivity in explaining dispersion in firm wage premia, as well as the factors shaping the link between productivity and wages at the firm level. The results suggest that around 15% of cross-firm differences in productivity are passed on to differences in firm wage premia. The degree of pass-through is systematically larger in countries and industries with more limited job mobility, where low-productivity firms can afford to pay lower wage premia relative to high-productivity ones without a substantial fraction of workers quitting their jobs. Stronger product market competition raises pass-through while more centralised bargaining and higher minimum wages constrain firm-level wage setting at any given level of productivity dispersion. From a policy perspective, the results suggest that the key priority should be to promote job mobility, which would reduce wage differences between firms while easing the efficient reallocation of workers across them."

Berufswechsel messen: Methodische Erörterung zur Analyse horizontaler beruflicher Mobilität im Mikrozensus und im Nationalen Bildungspanel (2021)
Zitatform
Söhn, Janina (2021): Berufswechsel messen. Methodische Erörterung zur Analyse horizontaler beruflicher Mobilität im Mikrozensus und im Nationalen Bildungspanel. (SOFI-Arbeitspapier 22), Göttingen, 71 S.
Abstract
"Dieses SOFI-Working Paper untersucht, wie mit zwei für Deutschland repräsentativen Survey, dem Mikrozensus und der Erwachsenenbefragung des Nationalen Bildungspanels, Berufswechsel gemessen, operationalisiert und empirisch analysiert werden können. Zum einen werden in jeder MZ-Welle Erwerbstätige direkt danach gefragt, ob sie in den vergangenen zwölf Monaten ihren ausgeübten Beruf offen ab, der dann in die "Klassifikation der Berufe" (DldB) 2010 eingeordnet wird. Diese Angabe kann dann mit dem einer vorangegangenen Erwerbstätigkeit vergleichen werden - im MZ mit der entsprechenden Information aus der Befragung ein Jahr zuvor, im NEPS mit der vorangegangenen Erwerbsperiode. Beide Umfragen bieten ausreichend hohe Fallzahlen, um sowohl die Inzidenz von Berufswechsel zu analysieren als auch Berufswechsel auf unterschiedliche Merkmale hin untereinander vergleichen. Das Working Paper zeigt im Detail, warum MZ subjektive und auf die KldB bezogenen Berufswechsel nur im Zusammenspiel mit einem Betriebswechsel in den vorangegangenen zwölf Monaten untersucht werden sollten. Mehrere Untersuchungsaspekte implizieren, dass die Antworten auf die direkte Frage nach einem Berufswechsel nur teilweise das Gleiche messen, wie wenn man den aktuell ausgeübten Beruf mit dem Befragungsjahr zuvor in Relation setzt. Während von einem Jahr auf das andere laut MZ in beiden Varianten nur gut 1% aller Erwerbstätigen die berufliche Tätigkeit und den Betrieb gewechselt haben, kann man im NEPS zeigen, dass sich bei gut der Hälfte aller Personen, die im Zeitraum von 20 Jahren jemals erwerbstätig waren, mindestens einmal die Berufsgruppe ändert. Dabei sind berufsfachlich große Wechsel häufiger als solche in benachbarte Berufsfelder hinein. Nur im NEPS können Berufswechsel mit dazwischen liegenden längeren Phasen der Nicht-Erwerbstätigkeit erfasst sowie die Dauer und Art dieser Nicht-Erwerbstätigkeit differenziert bestimmt werden. Mit dem MZ lassen sich aufgrund seiner besonders hohen Fallzahlen häufige Paare von Ausgangs- und Zielberufen unter Berufswecheln identifizieren. Ob für die Deskription oder als Prädiktorvariable in multivariaten Modellen als obere Aggregatebenen von Berufen und Berufswechseln die vom IAB/BA entwickelten 14 Berufssektoren oder die zwölf vom BIBB entwickelten Berufshauptfelder verwendet werden, hängt vom spezifischen Forschungsinteresse ab: Berufssegmente eigen sich bein einem Fokus auf das sekundäre Arbeitsmarktsegment mit ihrer Differenzierung zwischen Sicherheits-, Logistik-, Gastronomie- und Reinigungsberufe, im primären Arbeitsmarkt mit der Unterscheidung nachgefragter Berufe in der Pflege und Kindergärten sowie den IT-Berufen. Berufshauptfelder differieren besser zwischen Berufsgruppen mit akademischer Ausbildung, für deren Analyse wiederum das NEPS mit seinem "Akademiker-Bias" in den ungewichteten Daten besonders geeignet ist, während der MZ verlässlicher für Analysen für Berufswechsler:innen ohne oder mit beruflicher Ausbildung ist. Trotz großer Unterschiede in der Datenstruktur weisen MZ und NEPS viel Ähnlichkeiten bei dieser Analyse von Berufswechseln auf - ein guter Hinweis auf die Validität der Operationalisierung und der Qualität der Datensätze."

Career Complexity No Longer on the Rise: Comparing Early-and Mid-Career Complexity Across the 1930s thru 1980s Birth Cohortsin Sweden (2021)
Zitatform
Westerman, Johan, Dirk Witteveen, Erik Bihagen & Roujman Shahbazian (2021): Career Complexity No Longer on the Rise. Comparing Early-and Mid-Career Complexity Across the 1930s thru 1980s Birth Cohortsin Sweden. (SocArXiv papers), 43 S. DOI:10.31235/osf.io/md4t3
Abstract
"There is a wide-spread idea that contemporary careers continue to become ever more complex. Pioneering research of full-career complexity has shown that work lives have indeed become more complex, yet at modest increasing pace. This paper examines whether career complexity continues to increase using Swedish registry data across an exceptionally long time period, including younger cohorts than in previous research: up to those born in 1983. The full early-and mid-careers of selected birth cohorts cover several macroeconomic booms and downturns, a long period of upskilling of the Swedish labor force, as well as the convergence of working hours of women and men. The following conclusions are drawn using state-of-the-art methods of measuring career complexity. For early-careers, an increasing complexity trend is evident between the 1950s and 1960s birth cohorts, yet complexity fluctuates around a stable trend for the 1970s birth cohorts and onward. For mid-careers, which are considerably more stable on average, complexity has decreased among women born between the 1930s and the early-1950s. However, the opposite trend holds true for men, resulting in gender convergence of complexity. We observe a standstill of the mid-career complexity trend across both genders, followed by a modest decline for the last observed cohorts. Subsequent analyses point to educational expansion as an important driver of the initial increase of early-career complexity. Taken together, our analysis affirms an initial shift to more career complexity in the 20thcentury, yet we find no unidirectional trend toward more career complexity over the last decades."

Abstract
"This article studies how insurance from progressive taxation improves the matching of workers to occupations. We propose an equilibrium dynamic assignment model to illustrate how social insurance encourages mobility. Workers experiment to find their best occupational fit in a process filled with uncertainty. Risk aversion and limited earnings insurance induce workers to remain in unfitting occupations. We estimate the model using microdata from the United States and Germany. Higher earnings uncertainty explains the U.S. higher mobility rate. When workers in the United States enjoy Germany's higher progressivity, mobility rises. Output and welfare gains are large."

Abstract
"Wir analysieren Humankapitalexternalitäten von Hochqualifizierten mit präzisen georeferenzierten Sozialversicherungsdaten. Functional Regression ermöglicht es uns die Konzentration von Hochqualifizierten um Arbeitsplätze herum als kontinuierliche Kurven zu beschreiben und eine von der Entfernung abhängige Spillover-Funktion zu schätzen. Unsere umfangreichen Paneldaten ermöglichen es uns außerdem räumliche Selektion von Beschäftigten zu berücksichtigen und Humankapitalexternalitäten von Angebotseffekten mittels hochdimensionaler Fixed-Effekts zu trennen. Unsere Schätzungen zeigen, dass Humankapitalexternalitäten mit der Distanz abnehmen und etwa 15 Kilometer weit reichen. Humankapitalexternalitäten aus der unmittelbaren Nachbarschaft sind doppelt so hoch wie solche aus zehn Kilometern Entfernung." (Autorenreferat, IAB-Doku)

Was the mid-2000s drop in the British job change rate genuine or a survey design effect? (2020)
Zitatform
Jenkins, Stephen P. (2020): Was the mid-2000s drop in the British job change rate genuine or a survey design effect? In: Economics Letters, Jg. 194. DOI:10.1016/j.econlet.2020.109383
Abstract
"The year-on-year job change rate fell sharply, from 18% in 2005 to around 13% in 2006, according to British Household Panel Survey (BHPS) estimates. This fall coincides with the introduction of dependent interviewing to the BHPS, intended to reduce measurement error and improve consistency. Estimates from models of job change misclassification (Hausman et al., 1998) show that reduced measurement error cannot account for the fall in the job change rate. This suggests that the fall was genuine." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku, © 2020 Elsevier) ((en))

Abstract
"Measuring occupational mobility from the Current Population Survey using recall (retrospective) or linked panel responses (longitudinal) generates substantially different outcomes, both in levels and trends. Using a generalized method of moments technique, we estimate the actual level of occupational mobility and the measurement error in both of these measures for 1981-2018. Measurement error in longitudinal measures is large and has been worsening over time. However, actual occupational mobility is approximately 70% higher than retrospectively measures. Our estimated corrections imply workers in tradable occupations are less likely to switch occupations than previously believed, implying potentially lower welfare gains from trade."

Abstract
"In many professional service firms, new associates work long hours while competing in up-or-out promotion contests. Our model explains why. We argue that the productivity of skilled partners in professional service firms (e.g., law, consulting, investment banking, and public accounting) is quite large relative to the productivity of their peers who are competent and experienced but not well suited to the partner role. Therefore, these firms adopt personnel policies that facilitate the identification of new partners. In our model, both heavy workloads and up-or-out rules serve this purpose."

Abstract
"Die Mobilität von Arbeitnehmern kann Ungleichheiten in lokalen Arbeitsmärkten ausgleichen und beeinflusst die Effizienz des Matching-Prozesses. Dabei verstehen wir unter lokalen Arbeitsmärkten das Arbeitsangebot und die Arbeitsnachfrage in einer Region in den verschiedenen Berufen. Wir konstruieren ein Suchmodell, das sowohl regionale als auch berufliche Mobilität berücksichtigt. Mit diesem Modell beschreiben wir, wie die Jobsuche von Arbeitnehmern im eigenen und in anderen Berufen sowie im heimischen und in anderen Regionen die Anzahl der daraus resultierenden Neueinstellungen in Form von Spillovereffekten beeinflusst. Wir schätzen diese Spillover-Effekte auf der Basis detaillierter administrativer Daten aus Deutschland. Hierfür spezifizieren wir eine Matching-Funktion für lokale Arbeitsmärkte mit regionalen, beruflichen sowie kombinierten regionalen und beruflichen Spillover-Effekten für Arbeitslose und Vakanzen. Dabei treffen wir Annahmen zur Abhängigkeitsstruktur der lokalen Arbeitsmärkte, die auf regionalen Distanzen und Informationen zu Ähnlichkeiten von Berufen hinsichtlich der Qualifikations-Anforderungen und Tätigkeiten beruhen. Die Ergebnisse zeigen positive regionalen Spillover-Effekte der Vakanzen und der Arbeitslosen sowie positive berufliche Spillover-Effekte der Vakanzen, wohingegen die beruflichen Spillovereffekte der Arbeitslosen negativ sind. Die kombinierten regionalen und beruflichen Spillover-Effekte sind sowohl für die Vakanzen als auch für die Arbeitslosen positiv. Wir schlussfolgern auf der Basis eines Vergleichs mit einer herkömmlichen Matchingfunktion, dass die Vernachlässigung von Spillover-Effekten zu verzerrten Schätzungen der Job-Matching-Effizienz in lokalen Arbeitsmärkten führt."

Abstract
"The annual report on intra-EU labour mobility provides updated information on labormobility trends in EU and EFTA countries. Annual developments in stocks and flows are analyzed in the perspective of longer-term trends. The analysis considers the mobility of all working-age citizens (20-64 years) as well as the mobility of those who are active (employed and unemployed). The report also looks at indicators of economic integration of mobile citizens, such as employment/unemployment rates and occupations. This year, two specific topics on the qualifications and the household composition of the EU-28 movers are further analyzed. The two main data sources used are Eurostat population and migration statistics – for mobility of all citizens – and the European Labour Force Survey (EU-LFS) for the analysis of mobility of active citizens and economic integration. For methodological reasons estimated numbers of EU movers differ." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Abstract
"We investigate how the demographic composition of the workforce along the sex, nationality, education, age, and tenure dimension affects voluntary turnover. Fitting duration models for workers' job-to-job moves that control for workplace fixed effects in a representative sample of large manufacturing plants in Germany during 1975-2016, we find that larger co-worker similarity in all five dimensions substantially depresses voluntary turnover whereas workplace diversity is of limited importance. In line with conventional wisdom, which has that birds of one feather flock together, our results suggest that workers prefer having co-workers of their kind and place less value on diverse workplaces."

Abstract
"Collecting life course data is increasingly common in social and epidemiological research, either through record linkage of administrative data or by collecting retrospective interview data. This paper uses data on employment histories collected through both strategies, compares the attained samples, and investigates levels of agreements of individual histories. We use data from the German Heinz Nixdorf Recall Study with information on employment histories collected retrospectively from 2011 until 2014 (N?=?3059). Administrative data from the German Institute for Employment Research (IAB) were linked to the survey data. After comparing respondents who provide self-reported histories with the subsample of the ones for which administrative data were available, we investigate the agreement of individual employment histories from the two sources (between 1975 and 2010) using sequence analyses. Almost all participants provided survey data on employment histories (97% of the sample), linkage consent was given by 93%, and administrative data were available for 63% of the participants. People with survey data were more likely to be female, to have a higher education, and to work self-employed and in the tertiary sector. The agreement of individual employment histories is high and similar across time, with a median level of agreement of 89%. Slightly lower values exist for women and people working in the tertiary sector, both having more complex histories. No differences exist for health-related factors. In conclusion, it is likely that missing consent and failed record linkage lead to sample differences; yet, both strategies provide comparable and reliable life course data."

Abstract
"Research since Gary Becker equated specific human capital with firm-specific human capital. This paper divides firm human capital into a specific and a general component to investigate the relationships between firm- and occupation-specific human capital and job switches. Applying the task-based approach, the results show that the degree to which firm knowledge is portable depends on task similarities between the firms. Firm- and occupation-specific knowledge are negatively related to wages in a new job, but achieving a good occupational, instead of firm, match is more important for employees. The occupational intensity, reflecting the overall knowledge composition on the firm level, decreases with experience and can outweigh the costs of covering long task distances. As regards matching, a small distance between the firm and occupational tasks matters for medium-skilled employees." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Abstract
"I examine how career concerns are shaped by the nature of productive actions taken by workers. A worker's skills follow a Gaussian process with an endogenous component reflecting human- capital accumulation. Effort and skills are substitutes both in the output process (as in Holmström 1999) and in the skills technology. The focus is on deterministic equilibria by virtue of Gaussian learning. When effort and skills are direct inputs to production and skills are exogenous, effort can be inefficiently high in the beginning of a career. In contrast, when skills are the only input to production but accumulate through past effort choices, the worker always underinvests in skill acquisition. At the center of the discrepancy are two types of ex post errors that arise at interpreting output due to an identification problem faced by the market. Finally, the robustness of the underinvestment result is explored via variations in the skill- accumulation technology and in the information structure, and policy implications are discussed."

"This report provides an annually updated picture of intra-EU labor mobility in the EU. It presents an overview of stocks and flows of all and of active EU movers of working age using the most up-to-date EU-wide comparable data. Therefore, the report identifies main countries of destination and of origin and identifies major changes compared to previous years in the Member States. Like every year, the report looks at the situation of movers on the labor market, by comparing indicators such as employment rates, occupations, sectors of activity, education, over-qualification between different groups of movers, to nationals in the country of residence and over time. Furthermore, the report addresses a variety of specific topics, that differ from year to year, depending on current developments and policy needs. This year, the report specifically looks at the gender dimension of mobility, language and other barriers to cross-border mobility in neighboring regions; and at the mobility of health professionals."

Abstract
"Intragenerational mobility -- persistent or secular upward or downward changes in individuals' economic positions or occupational standing over their working lives -- is intimately related both to intergenerational mobility and inequality as well as to labor market theories and behaviors. Careers are job sequences or patterns of mobility/immobility within and between occupations and organizations, the two major work structures that shape the opportunities available in the labor market. This article reviews research that links occupations and organizations to careers and intragenerational mobility. We emphasize the multidisciplinary nature of contributions to this topic and focus on integrating research by sociologists and economists. We also highlight cross-national research and emphasize the literatures that address questions related to social stratification and labor markets. Finally, we suggest fruitful areas for future research." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Modelling decision-making processes of regional mobility in a dyadic framework (2018)

Kern, Christoph & Petra Stein (2018): Modelling decision-making processes of regional mobility in a dyadic framework. In: European Sociological Review, Jg. 34, H. 4, S. 433-451. DOI:10.1093/esr/jcy012
Abstract
"Analysing mobility decisions has been on the research agenda of various disciplines for many years, resulting in a diversity of conceptual and statistical approaches. However, previous empirical studies typically model regional mobility from an actor-centred perspective which lacks to take the contextual embeddedness of individuals in regions and partnerships into account. Against this background, this study proposes a multilevel dyadic approach with which different aspects of mobility decisions can be incorporated in a joint modelling framework. Specifically, this approach allows to specify actor, partner, and contextual effects in a dyadic model structure which covers two stages of the migration process. Linking the intentional decision stage and actual moving behaviour enables to study indirect effects of individual characteristics on regional mobility through actor-specific mobility dispositions. Formally, the model is implemented using multilevel probit structural equation models and applied to data on labour market-related mobility from the German Socio-Economic Panel Study (SOEP and SOEP Geocodes). The results support both the dyadic and the multilevel component of the proposed model, indicating significant partner and contextual effects in the decision-making process of couples."
