    Kay, Rosemarie, André Pahnke & Friederike Welter (2024): Family business succession planning: do outcomes depend on the predominant gender on the management board? In: M. Barrett, J. Huybrechts & J. S. K. Lee (Hrsg.) (2024): Women in Family Business. New Perspectives, Contexts and Roles, S. 225-249. DOI:10.4337/9781802206364.00018

    Abstract

    "Existing research on family business succession stresses that the business’s economic situation strongly influences its degree of attractiveness to potential successors. However, research on women’s entrepreneurship suggests that women-led businesses may be less economically attractive to potential successors because of structural differences in comparison to men-led businesses. Moreover, the business owner’s gender may also have an impact on the business succession process and its outcome. Based on one of the largest German establishment surveys augmented by additional administrative data, this chapter seeks to link the two research strands by providing initial insights into the impact of the family business owner’s gender on both business succession planning and the outcome of the business succession process. Regarding the outcome of business successions, the results indicate that differences between women- and men-led businesses are not related to gender but to characteristics of the businesses to be handed over."

    Abstract

    "In diesem Papier untersuchen wir Veränderungen der Betriebsgrößenverteilung in Westdeutschland über die Zeit. Dabei stellen wir fest, dass die durchschnittliche Betriebsgröße in den 1990er und 2000er Jahren gesunken ist, während sie in den 2010er Jahren einen Wiederanstieg erfahren hat. Zunächst untersuchen wir, ob diese Veränderungen auf etablierte Betriebe oder Betriebsgründungen und -schließungen zurückzuführen sind. Anschließend stellen wir dar, inwiefern die Veränderung der durchschnittlichen Betriebsgröße mit Veränderungen der Arbeitsproduktivität einhergingen. Im letzten Schritt suchen wir nach einer Erklärung für das Sinken und den Wiederanstieg der durchschnittlichen Betriebsgröße. Dabei stellen wir fest, dass im selben Zeitraum die Betriebsgrößenlohnprämie erst angestiegen und anschließend gesunken ist. Deshalb untersuchen wir empirisch und modellbasiert, inwiefern die Betriebsgrößenlohnprämie mit der durchschnittlichen Betriebsgröße zusammenhängt." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

    Kovalenko, Tim & Benedikt Schröpf (2024): Patterns of regional firm mobility in Germany. (Friedrich-Alexander-Universität, Lehrstuhl für Arbeitsmarkt- und Regionalpolitik. Diskussionspapiere 129), Nürnberg, 44 S.

    Abstract

    "Obwohl inlandische Betriebsumzuge sowohl Teil der Faktorreallokation zwischen Regionen als auch der Betriebsdynamik innerhalb einer Volkswirtschaft sind, gibt es nur wenig Evidenz über die Mobilität von Firmen in Deutschland. In dieser Studie untersuchen wir daher die Muster der Firmenmobilitat in Deutschland auf betrieblicher und regionaler Ebene. Unter Verwendung umfangreicher administrativer Daten dokumentieren wir, dass die meisten Betriebsumzuge von kreisfreien Großstädten in die umliegenden städtischen Landkreise zu beobachten sind, was auf eine Suburbanisierung der Betriebslandschaft hindeutet. In Bezug auf die Betriebsmerkmale zeigen unsere Ergebnisse, dass mittelgroße und wissensintensive Betriebe eine hohe Umzugssneigung aufweisen. Außerdem handelt es sich bei Betrieben, die in kreisfreie Großstädte oder städtische Landkreise umziehen, eher um Hochlohnbetriebe, wahrend Betriebe, die ihren Standort in ländliche Landkreise verlagern, eher Niedriglohnbetriebe sind. Unsere regionalen Analysen zeigen, dass Betriebe, die ihren Standort verlagern, nahe gelegene Landkreise mit (im Vergleich zu ihrem alten Standort) niedriger Steuerbelastung und geringer Bevölkerungsdichte aufsuchen."

    Enriching administrative data using survey data and machine learning techniques (2024)

    Kunaschk, Max (2024): Enriching administrative data using survey data and machine learning techniques. In: Economics Letters, Jg. 243, 2024-08-13. DOI:10.1016/j.econlet.2024.111924

    Abstract

    "I propose an approach to enrich administrative data with information only available in survey data using machine learning techniques. To illustrate the approach, I replicate a prominent study that used survey data to analyze the federal minimum wage introduction in Germany. In contrast to the original study, I use the universe of German establishments rather than the limited number of establishments that participated in the survey. As the administrative data do not contain information on whether establishments were treated by the minimum wage, I use a random forest classifier, trained on survey data, to predict the treatment status of establishments. The results obtained using the administrative data are qualitatively similar to the results obtained using the survey data. Beyond replication of previous research, this approach broadens the research potential of administrative data, enabling researchers to explore more detailed research questions at scale."

    Liang, Ying (2024): Firms' Risk Adjustments to Minimum Wage: Financial Leverage and Labor Share Trade-off. (arXiv papers 2408.03659), 75 S.

    Abstract

    "This paper evaluates the impact of the German minimum wage policy on firms’ financial leverage. By using a comprehensive firm-establishment-employee linked dataset and a difference in-differences estimation with firm-level variation in treatment intensity, the analysis shows that the average minimum wage level reduces firms’ financial leverage by about 0.5 to 0.9 percentage points, corresponding to 1 to 2 percent of the mean of financial leverage. Further investigation of the mechanism shows that the minimum wage does not lead to significant capital labor substitution; therefore, the labor share increases. Firms react to the increased labor share by deleveraging. The results suggest that while the minimum wage benefits workers by allocating more earnings to the labor force, it also introduces greater operating risks and encourages conservative financial behavior among firms."

    Abstract

    "This paper analyzes the relationship between labor market tightness and firms' hiring behavior. We use unique linked employer-employee data to show that firms lower their hiring standards in tight labor markets, but we find no evidence that firms increase the starting wages of new hires. Exploiting detailed data on pre- and post-match hiring costs, we find that both cost components increase with the degree of tightness in the labor market. However, as pre-match search costs make up only a small share of the total hiring costs, our results highlight the importance of the post-match hiring costs for firms' adjustment to tightness."

    Abstract

    "This article describes the processing and accessibility of the person and establishment fixed wage effects in German administrative data. These effects have been estimated following the approach of Abowd, J., Kramarz, F., and Margolis, D. (1999. High wage workers and high wage firms. Econometrica 67: 251–333) and Card, D., Heining, J., and Kline, P. (2013. Workplace heterogeneity and the rise of West German wage inequality. Q. J. Econ. 128: 967–1015). They can be linked to most of the available administrative datasets provided by the Research Data Center (FDZ) of the German Federal Employment Agency at the Institute for Employment Research (IAB). They are available for different time intervals from 1985 until 2021. These effects have been used in numerous articles that deal with the contributions of workers and establishments to earnings inequality." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku, © De Gruyter) ((en))

    Meister, Moritz (2024): Labor Market Impact of Disruptions in Global Value Chains. (IAB-Discussion Paper 10/2024), Nürnberg, 59 S. DOI:10.48720/IAB.DP.2410

    Abstract

    "Diese Studie untersucht mit Hilfe eines Differenz-in-Differenzen-Ansatzes in Kombination mit Entropy Balancing den kausalen Effekt von globalen Wertschöpfungsketten (GVC) auf den deutschen Arbeitsmarkt während der COVID-19-Krise. Die Analyse von monatlichen Betriebsdaten von Januar 2019 bis Dezember 2021 zeigt, dass ein Anstieg des GVC-bezogenen Handels mit China um eine Standardabweichung zu einem Anstieg der Kurzarbeit um bis zu 27 Prozentpunkte führt, wobei die Effekte von Mai bis Oktober 2020 signifikant positiv sind. Für diesen Zeitraum würde den Regressionsergebnissen zufolge ein Anstieg um eine Standardabweichung zu zusätzlichen Ausgaben für Kurzarbeit in Höhe von rund 7,3 Milliarden Euro führen. Im Gegensatz dazu ergeben sich für den GVC-bezogene Handel mit der Welt als Handelspartner keine signifikanten Effekte. Zusätzliche Befragungsdaten stützen die Ergebnisse und deuten darauf hin, dass Betriebe, die stärker in GVCs mit China eingebunden sind, im Jahr 2020 mehr Schwierigkeiten bei der Beschaffung von Vorleistungen oder bei der Zusammenarbeit mit Lieferanten hatten."

    Essays on Spatial Sorting and Labor Markets (2024)

    Oh, Ryungha (2024): Essays on Spatial Sorting and Labor Markets. New Haven, 188 S.

    Abstract

    "The dissertation consists of two independent essays that examine how worker and firm sorting across local labor markets shape both regional and aggregate economic outcomes and what are the policy implications. The first chapter of this dissertation studies why productive workers and firms locate together in dense cities. I develop a new theory of two-sided sorting in which both heterogeneous workers and firms sort across space. The location choices of workers and firms affect each other and endogenously generate spatial disparities in the presence of three essential forces: complementarity between worker and firm productivity, random matching within frictional local labor markets, and congestion costs. I demonstrate that the decentralized equilibrium exhibits excessive concentration of workers and firms, and dispersing them away from dense locations can mitigate congestion without reducing output. I then provide direct empirical evidence of the two-sided sorting mechanism using German administrative microdata. An exogenous increase in the quality of the workforce in a location results in more productive firms choosing that location. Finally, to quantify the implications of the model, I calibrate it to U.S. regional data and show that policies that relocate workers and firms toward less dense areas can increase welfare. The second chapter investigates the importance of spatial firm sorting for wage inequality both between and within local labor markets. We develop a novel model in which heterogeneous firms first choose a location and then hire workers in a frictional labor market. Firms’ location choices are guided by a fundamental trade-off: Operating in productive locations increases output per worker, but sharing a labor market with other productive firms makes it hard to poach and retain workers, and hence limits firm size. Positive sorting - with productive firms settling in productive Locations - emerges as the unique equilibrium if firm and location productivity are sufficient complements or labor market frictions are sufficiently large. Positive sorting steepens the job ladder in productive locations and, as a consequence, increases both their average wages and wage dispersion. We estimate our model using administrative data from Germany and identify firm sorting from a novel fact: Labor shares are lower in productive locations, which indicates a higher concentration of top firms with strong monopsony power. Positive firm sorting can account for at least 15% of the spatial variation in average wages and for 40% of the spatial variation in within-location wage dispersion."

    Minimum Wages in Concentrated Labor Markets (2024)

    Popp, Martin (2024): Minimum Wages in Concentrated Labor Markets. (IZA discussion paper / Forschungsinstitut zur Zukunft der Arbeit 17357), Bonn, 148 S.

    Abstract

    "Economists increasingly refer to monopsony power to reconcile the absence of negative employment effects of minimum wages with theory. However, systematic evidence for the monopsony argument is scarce. In this paper, I perform a comprehensive test of this argument by using labor market concentration as a proxy for monopsony power. Labor market concentration turns out substantial in Germany. Absent wage floors, higher concentration reduces wages and employment, reflecting monopsonistic conduct of firms. Sectoral minimum wages lead to negative employment effects in slightly concentrated or more competitive labor markets. This effect weakens with increasing concentration and, ultimately, becomes positive in highly concentrated or monopsonistic markets. Overall, the results lend empirical support to the monopsony argument, implying that conventional minimum wage effects on employment conceal heterogeneity across market forms."

    Abstract

    "Although domestic establishment relocations are part of both the factor reallocation across regions and establishment dynamics within an economy, evidence on firm mobility in Germany is rather scarce. In this study, we therefore examine establishment- and regional-level patterns of firm mobility in Germany. Using rich administrative data, we document that most relocation flows go from major cities to the surrounding urban districts, suggesting sub-urbanization patterns. In terms of establishment-level characteristics, we document that middle-sized and knowledge-intensive establishments exhibit high relocation propensities. Further, establishments moving to major cities or urban districts are rather high-wage establishments while establishments moving to rural districts are rather low-wage establishments. Our regional analyses reveal that relocating establishments prefer nearby regions with (compared to their old locations) low tax burdens and low population densities."

(Working Paper Series / Universität Konstanz, Cluster of Excellence 'The Politics of Inequality' 29), Konstanz, 33 S. DOI:10.48787/kops/352-2-sofyhpevr9ys3

    Abstract

    "Previous research has shown that gender pay gaps are perceived as fair or justified, not only by men but also by women. In this paper we analyse whether this gender bias in the evaluation of fair wages still persists and whether the organizational context has an impact on fairness perceptions. We use unique data from a vignette study that was part of a representative online survey of 5,556 employees in 532 larger firms (> 100 employees) in Germany which are merged to administrative data. This allows us to consider different contextual factors at both the workgroup level and the firm level. In contrast to older studies we find that women tend to evaluate wages of female workers as unfairly too low. Moreover, the perception of (un)fair wages depends on the organizational context. Female supervisors and collective bargaining agreements in firms increase women’s awareness for other women’s unfairly too low wages, whereas an exchange about wages with co-workers affects the fairness perceptions of both male and female workers."

    Abstract

    "Employment interruptions of mothers are still one of the main causes for different labor market outcomes between women and men. Employment subsidies can incentivise mothers to shorten employment interruptions after childbirth. We examine a German parental leave reform incentivizing an early return to part-time work. Exploiting the exogenous variation defined by the child's birthday, we apply unconditional difference-in-differences (DiD) estimation using administrative data. Machine learning augmented DiD estimation shows that our findings are robust to the inclusion of a large dictionary of potential covariates. Additionally, we estimate conditional effects in the DiD setting. Our results show that being eligible to the new regime yields positive average employment effects that are mainly driven by part-time employment. In particular, the increased attractiveness of part-time work does not cannibalize full-time employment. The policy creates heterogeneous incentives depending on the opportunity costs of working part time: especially mothers with middle income and prior part-time workers respond to the reform. Besides, diverging results for East and West Germany hint at the potential of a change in social norms." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku, Published by arrangement with John Wiley & Sons) ((en))

    Abstract

    "This paper investigates the association between a measure of works council heterogeneity and plant closings in Germany, 2006-2015. Two datasets are used to identify failed establishments, while institutional heterogeneity is captured by management perceptions of the role of the works council in managerial decision making and also by allowing for works council learning. The potential moderating role of sectoral collective bargaining is also examined. We report that works councils per se are not associated with plant closure. Rather, it is establishments with disaffected councils that display higher rates of closure. The latter result does not obtain where such establishments are covered by sectoral agreements; an outcome that is consistent with the literature on the mitigation of rent-seeking behavior, and one that also receives support from our finding that plants with dissonant councils are more likely than their consensual counterparts to transition into sectoral bargaining coverage. On the other hand, there is only limited evidence of works council learning." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku, © Wiley) ((en))

    Abstract

    "In recent decades, accelerating technological progress and increasing international trade have not only made labour markets more dynamic but also steadily changed the demand for skills and knowledge. As a result, workers have had to continuously invest in training to update their skills if they want to avoid long-lasting negative consequences for their careers. This project uses data from the adult cohort of the German National Education Panel Study (NEPS) to investigate how workers’ training participation has evolved in dynamic labour markets exposed to technological change and increasing international trade. The study analyses the relationship between workplace automation and employment-related training and shows that the training participation of workers whose jobs were highly exposed to automation was much lower than that of workers whose jobs were less exposed. Moreover, results suggest that employers’ financial support explains the lion’s share of the training gap. Consistent with the new training literature, firms are the main force behind further training investments." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku, © Springer) ((en))

    The cost of job loss in carbon-intensive sectors: Evidence from Germany (2023)

    Barreto, César, Robert Grundke & Zeev Krill (2023): The cost of job loss in carbon-intensive sectors: Evidence from Germany. (OECD Economics Department working papers 1774), Paris, 47 S. DOI:10.1787/6f636d3b-en

    Abstract

    "The green transformation of the economy is expected to lead to a sharp reduction in employment in carbon-intensive industries. For designing policies to support displaced workers, it is crucial to better understand the cost of job loss, whether there are specific effects of being displaced from a carbon-intensive sector and which workers are most at risk. By using German administrative labor market data and focusing on mass layoff events, we estimate the cost of involuntary job displacement for workers in high carbon-intensity sectors and compare it with the displacement costs for workers in low carbon-intensity sectors. We find that displaced workers from high carbon-intensity sectors have, on average, higher earnings losses and face stronger difficulties in finding a new job and recovering their earnings. Our results indicate that this is mainly due to human capital specificity, the regional clustering of carbon-intensive activities and higher wage premia in carbon-intensive firms. Workers displaced in high carbon-intensity sectors are older, face higher local labor market concentration and have fewer outside options for finding jobs with similar skill requirements. They have a higher probability to switch occupations and sectors, move to occupations that are more different in terms of skill requirements compared to the pre-displacement job, and are more likely to change workplace districts after displacement. Women, older workers and those with vocational degrees as well as workers in East Germany, experience particularly high costs in case they are displaced from high carbon-intensity sectors."

    Abstract

    "In course of the current energy crisis, the consequences of increasing gas prices are heavily discussed. To date, however, there is no evidence of the impact of gas prices on the labor market. Using administrative employment data from 2012–2020, we find for manufacturing establishments a gas price elasticity of labor demand of −0.02, likely reflecting a scale effect. We also show that a rise in the gas price leads to an increase in establishment closure. A negative impact of the gas price on wages of 2 percent is consistent with rent-sharing."

    Abstract

    "Nach Jahren der Trennung von Wohnen und Arbeiten geriet die Produktion in der Stadt zunehmend aus dem Blickfeld und wurde zum Teil aus den Städten verlagert. Angestoßen durch veränderte Produktionsweisen und neue Leitbilder der Nutzungsmischung wird aktuell über die produktive Stadt diskutiert. Bundesweite Analysen darüber, wie sich Produktion in unterschiedlichen Stadt- und Gemeindetypen darstellt, fehlen bislang. Hier setzt der vorliegende Beitrag an, der eine empirisch messbare Definition urbaner Produktion vorstellt und dazu Daten des Betriebs-Historik-Panels des Instituts für Arbeitsmarkt und Berufsforschung (IAB) mit Bevölkerungsdaten des Zensus sowie verschiedenen Geodaten verschneidet. Auf dieser Basis erfolgt eine räumlich differenzierte Analyse zum Status quo und zur zeitlichen Entwicklung (2000-2017) urbaner Produktion in Deutschland. Dargestellt werden Informationen zu Betrieben und Beschäftigten sowie deren bundesweite und kleinräumige Entwicklungen" (Autorenreferat, IAB-Doku)

    The role of agglomerations in the emerging performance and the early development of new establishments: evidence from Germany (2023)

    Zitatform

    Changoluisa, Javier (2023): The role of agglomerations in the emerging performance and the early development of new establishments: evidence from Germany. In: Journal of evolutionary economics, Jg. 33, H. 3, S. 837-868. DOI:10.1007/s00191-023-00823-9

    Abstract

    "This paper analyzes the emerging performance and early development of new establishments considering the role of agglomerations. It creates distinctions between the most commonly observed types of new businesses, namely startups, spinofs, and new establishments that result from a change in proprietorship. The empirical analysis reveals that new establishments with higher productivity emerge in regions with higher population density, regardless of the foundation type. While at the end of the time period analyzed, new establishments in more densely populated regions still show higher productivity levels than those in less densely populated regions, an agglomeration’s role depends on the foundation type. Indeed, while spinofs in more densely populated regions tend to refect the higher productivity levels shown in the frst time period, the productivity premium of startups in agglomerations diminishes over time. This analysis emphasizes the relevance of location for the setup and early development of new ventures and, more importantly, the varying role of agglomerations conditioned by the characteristics of new businesses."

    Abstract

    "Wir analysieren die Auswirkungen der Einführung von Robotern auf die Zusammensetzung der Beschäftigung anhand neuer Mikrodaten über den Einsatz von Robotern in deutschen Betrieben des verarbeitenden Gewerbes in Verbindung mit weiteren Daten. Unser theoretisches Modell sagt positive Beschäftigungseffekte für die am wenigsten routineintensiven Berufe und für junge Arbeitnehmer voraus, wobei letztere sich besser an den Wandel anpassen können. Eine Event-Study zur Einführung von Robotern findet hierfür Evidenz. Wir finden für keine Berufs- oder Altersgruppe negative Beschäftigungseffekte, aber die Fluktuation unter gering qualifizierten Arbeitnehmern steigt stark an. Wir kommen zu dem Schluss, dass der Verdrängungseffekt von Robotern berufsabhängig, aber altersneutral ist, während der Wiedereinstellungseffekt altersabhängig ist und vor allem jungen Arbeitnehmern zugute kommt."

    Abstract

    "We analyze the impact of robot adoption on female employment. Our analysis is based on novel micro data on robot use by German manufacturing establishments linked with social security records. An event study analysis for robot adoption shows increased churning among female workers. Whereas hiring rises significantly at robot adoption, separations increase with a smaller magnitude one year later. Overall, employment effects are modestly positive and strongest for medium-qualified women. We find no adverse employment effects for female workers in any of our broad qualification groups."

    Abstract

    "The occupational panel for Germany provides a comprehensive database for studying the development of occupations over time. It is based on the IAB Employment History (BeH), which contains all social security notifications that employers have to submit for their employees subject to social security and minor employees. The current version of the panel covers the years 2012–2018. Information on employees is aggregated at the occupational level such as shares by age, qualification or gender. In addition, occupational information from the expert database BERUFENET of the Federal Employment Agency, e.g. the substitution potential or the Digital-Tools Index, is prepared and merged to the occupational panel."

    Employment and Reallocation Effects of Higher Minimum Wages (2023)

    Drechsel-Grau, Moritz (2023): Employment and Reallocation Effects of Higher Minimum Wages. (CESifo working paper 10412), München, 64 S.

    Abstract

    "This paper studies the employment and reallocation effects of minimum wages in Germany in a search-and-matching model with endogenous job search effort and vacancy posting, multiple employment levels, a progressive tax-transfer system, and worker and firm heterogeneity. I find that minimum wages up to 70% of the median wage significantly increase productivity, hours worked and output without reducing employment. In frictional labor markets, however, reallocation takes time whenever the minimum wage cuts deep into the wage distribution. I show that gradually implementing a high minimum wage is necessary to avoid elevated unemployment rates during the transition." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

    The World's Rust Belts: The Heterogeneous Effects of Deindustrialization on 1,993 Cities in Six Countries (2023)

    Abstract

    "We investigate the employment consequences of deindustrialization for 1,993 cities in France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, Japan, and the United States. In all six countries we find a strong negative relationship between a city's share of manufacturing employment in the year of its country's manufacturing peak and the subsequent change in total employment, reflecting the fact that cities where manufacturing was initially more important experienced larger negative labor demand shocks. But in a significant number of cases, total employment fully recovered and even exceeded initial levels, despite the loss of manufacturing jobs. Overall, 34% of former manufacturing hubs--defined as cities with an initial manufacturing employment share in the top tercile--experienced employment growth faster than their country's mean, suggesting that a surprisingly large number of cities was able to adapt to the negative shock caused by deindustrialization. The U.S. has the lowest share, indicating that the U.S. Rust Belt communities have fared relatively worse compared to their peers in the other countries. We then seek to understand why some former manufacturing hubs recovered while others didn't. We find that deindustrialization had different effects on local employment depending on the initial share of college-educated workers in the labor force. While in the two decades before the manufacturing peak, cities with a high college share experienced a rate of employment growth similar to those with a low college share, in the decades after the manufacturing peak, the employment trends diverged: cities with a high college share experienced significantly faster employment growth. The divergence grows over time at an accelerating rate. Using an instrumental variable based on the driving distance to historical colleges and universities, we estimate that a one standard deviation increase in local college share results in a rate of employment growth per decade that is 9.1 percentage points" (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

    Regional Factors as Determinants of Employees’ Training Participation (2023)

    Abstract

    "Although the literature on the determinants of training has considered individual and firm-related characteristics, it has generally neglected regional factors. This is surprising, given the fact that labour markets differ by regions. Regional factors are often ignored because (both in Germany and abroad) many data sets covering training information do not include detailed geographical identifiers that would allow a merging of information on the regional level. The regional identifiers of the National Educational Panel Study (Starting Cohort 6) offer opportunities to advance research on several regional factors. This article summarizes the results from two studies that exploit these unique opportunities to investigate the relationship between training participation and (a) the local level of firm competition for workers within specific sectors of the economy and (b) the regional supply of training measured as the number of firms offering courses or seminars for potential training participants."

    Abstract

    "In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, more firms than ever before have enabled their employees to work from home. Based on a representative firm survey in Germany, surveying 2.000 firms per month throughout the course of the pandemic (October 2020 until June 2022), this paper provides suggestive evidence concerning the effects of working from home (WFH) at different points in time during the pandemic and discusses implications for the future of work. We assess the potential of WFH in Germany to be 25–30% of private-sector employees. On the firm side, we find that higher WFH use is positively related to business success during the crisis, with increased employee productivity and employees working more hours when remote being possible mechanisms. Larger firms in particular are open towards expanding their WFH offerings in the future. During the pandemic, firms have experienced that WFH has worked well in many respects (e.g., productivity of employees, quality of work performed) and, for the future, they are willing to facilitate WFH in order to give their employees more flexibility, and to be considered an attractive employer. However, working on site brings advantages (e.g., communication, cooperation and onboarding of new employees) firms will not want to sacrifice, pointing towards a hybrid model of work."

    The fall and rebound of average establishment size in West Germany (2023)

    Abstract

    "In West Germany, the average size of establishments declined during the 1990s and started to increase again in the late 2000s, while the employer size wage premium followed the opposite trajectory. In this paper, we show that these two developments are interrelated. More precisely, our results suggest that variations in the employer size wage premiums induced establishments to vary their employment level, consistent with monopsony power on the labor market. Moreover, our regional analyses show that average establishment size correlates positively with GDP per capita. We rationalize these findings with a heterogeneous firms model with monopsonistic competition in the labor market, stemming from the household’s love-of-variety preferences for employers. Both empirics and theory reveal that higher size wage premiums decrease average establishment size by downsizing incumbent establishments and triggering the entry of small establishments, thus also negatively affecting aggregate productivity."

    Abstract

    "Many household panel surveys have experienced decreasing response rates and increasing risk of nonresponse bias in recent decades, but trends in response rates and nonresponse bias in business or establishment panel surveys are largely understudied. This article examines both panel response rates and nonresponse bias in one of the largest and longest-running establishment panels, the IAB Establishment Panel. Response rate trends are reported over a 17-year period for each annual cohort and rich administrative data are used to evaluate changes in nonresponse bias and test hypotheses regarding short-term and long-term panel participation. The findings show that while cumulative panel response rates have declined over time, wave-to-wave reinterview rates have remained largely stable. Reinterview nonresponse bias has also remained stable, while cumulative nonresponse bias has consistently increased within all cohorts. Larger establishments and those that experienced an interviewer change or did not answer all survey questions (item nonresponse) in a previous wave were less likely to continue participating in the panel. These findings and their practical implications are discussed in conclusion." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku, © Springer-Verlag) ((en))

    Abstract

    "We use linked employer–employee data to estimate the impact of firms’ foreign direct investment (FDI) into a low-wage country on workers’ job stability in a high-wage country. We are the first to consider internal (i.e., within-firm) job transitions. Specifically, we examine the impact of German firms’ FDI into the Czech Republic on the likelihood of onshore employees up- or downgrading to occupations that are more or less intensive in analytical and interactive tasks. To do so, we match firms with similar investing probabilities. We use this sample to estimate proportional hazards models to retrieve the dynamic effects on workers. We find that FDI increases the average likelihood of upgrades and downgrades by 17% and 19%, respectively. These effects are the strongest for jobs with low shares of nonroutine and interactive tasks, and they increase over time. They become substantial two years after the investment and reach 32%–46% and 35%–48%, respectively. FDI does not increase the hazard of worker–firm separations. Our results highlight the importance of internal firm restructuring, which enables firms to satisfy their altered domestic labor needs after FDI." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

    Abstract

    "Although wage inequality is an important and widely studied issue, the literature is vastly silent on the relationship between firm entry and exit and the wage dispersion between firms. Using a 50% random administrative sample of West German establishments over the period 1976–2017, I study wage dispersion dynamics between and within the groups of entering, exiting, and incumbent establishments by examining the distribution of average wages across establishments. The results show that entering establishments became increasingly unequal over time, thereby contributing to the rise in wage dispersion between establishments. However, exit rates of young and low-wage establishments have dampened this effect. These findings suggest considering the consequences for wage inequality when designing and assessing policy instruments for firm entry and exit."

    Abstract

    "In many countries, training subsidies and levy schemes are used to tackle the problem that company-based provision of apprenticeship training is low. In this paper, we consider the introduction of a levy scheme in the care sector and estimate the causal effect exerted by substantial redistribution of care worker apprenticeship costs on the training activity of care facilities. We exploit the fact that the underlying apprenticeship levy was introduced across the German federal states at different points in time. For ambulatory care, we find a positive effect on the probability of hiring new apprentices and on the number of new apprentices. Inpatient care facilities react only at the intensive margin. This suggests that the positive effects in this sector are driven mainly by facilities that have already provided training slots before the reform."

    Abstract

    "Using an event study approach and a novel data set that links administrative information on German establishments with exact distance measures from geo-referenced address data, we analyze the net impact of mass layoffs on local employment. We find that local spillovers significantly attenuate the direct impact of mass layoffs on municipal-level employment. About a quarter of the 1-year direct employment loss due to a mass layoff event is absorbed within the same municipality. Local spillovers are especially pronounced very close to the mass layoff site; the majority of the absorption is concentrated within a 1000-m radius. There is little evidence of spillovers beyond the affected municipality." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku, © Oxford University Press) ((en))

Anhand von Umfragedaten aus Deutschland dokumentieren wir eine erhebliche Heterogenität bei der Veränderung von Aufgabeninhalten innerhalb eines Berufes. Kombiniert man diese Erkenntnisse mit administrativen Daten zu individuellen Beschäftigungsergebnissen über einen Zeitraum von 25 Jahren, so stellt man fest, dass es eine erhebliche Heterogenität in Bezug auf Lohneinbußen bei ursprünglich routineintensiven Tätigkeiten gibt. Während Berufe, die (relativ) routineintensiv bleiben, erhebliche Lohneinbußen mit sich bringen, bleiben die Löhne in Berufen mit abnehmender Routineintensität stabil oder steigen sogar. Diese Ergebnisse lassen sich nicht durch Kompositions- oder Kohorteneffekte erklärt werden." (Autorenreferat, IAB-Doku)

    Abstract

    "Based on a decomposition exercise, we show that, while the three labor market trends of structural change, servitization, and skill-biased change occur simultaneously in Germany, they are independent of and clearly distinguishable from one another. We assess the individual contributions of each of the trends to observed changes in employment from 1975 to 2017. In addition to structural change, which often dominates the debate about changes in the labor market, servitization and skill-biased change also play an important role in employment growth. For instance, merely two-thirds of the lost jobs in the manufacturing sector can be attributed to structural change." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

    Labor market frictions and spillover effects from publicly announced sectoral minimum wages (2022)

    Demir, Gökay (2022): Labor market frictions and spillover effects from publicly announced sectoral minimum wages. (Ruhr economic papers 985), Essen, 76 S.

    Abstract

    "I analyze the spillover effects of publicly announced sectoral minimum wages in Germany. My identification strategy exploits exposure to sectoral minimum wages across workers and industries outside the minimum wage sector in a triple differences estimation. Subminimum wage workers in related industries outside of the minimum wage sector experience an increase in wages, job-to-job transitions, and reallocation from low-paying to high-paying establishments after the public announcement of Germany's first sectoral minimum wage. The reduction of information frictions, rather than the strategic interaction of employers, appears to be the main mechanism for these effects. When examining the spillover effects of other sectoral minimum wages from various contexts, I only discover positive spillover effects on sub-minimum wage workers in related industries outside the minimum wage sectors if the typical employment relationship in the minimum wage sector is comparable to that of the workers in my sample."

    Macroeconomic and Distributional Effects of Higher Minimum Wages (2022)

    Drechsel-Grau, Moritz (2022): Macroeconomic and Distributional Effects of Higher Minimum Wages. (Jahrestagung des Vereins für Socialpolitik 2022: Big Data in Economics), Kiel, 60 S.

    Abstract

    "While many countries are discussing substantial increases in the minimum wage, policy makers lack a comprehensive analysis of the macroeconomic and distributional consequences of raising the minimum wage. This paper investigates how employment, output and worker welfare respond to increases in the minimum wage beyond observable levels – both in the short- and long run. To that end, I incorporate endogenous job search effort, differences in employment levels, and a progressive tax-transfer system into a search-matching model with worker and firm heterogeneity. I estimate my model using German administrative and survey data. The model replicates the muted employment response, as well as the reallocation effects in terms of productivity and employment levels documented by reduced form research on the German introduction of a federal minimum wage in 2015. Simulating the model, I find that long-run employment increases slightly until the minimum wage is equal to 60% of the full-time median wage (Kaitz index) as higher search effort offsets lower vacancy posting. In addition, raising the minimum wage reallocates workers towards fulltime jobs and high-productivity firms. Total hours worked and output peak at Kaitz indices of 73% and 79%. However, policy makers face an important inter-temporal trade-off as large minimum wage hikes lead to substantial job destruction, unemployment and recessions in the short-run. Finally, I show that raising the minimum wage largely benefits men. For women, who often rely on low-hours jobs, the disutility from working longer hours outweighs the utility of higher incomes."

    Does working at a start-up pay off? (2022)

    Fackler, Daniel, Lisa Hölscher, Claus Schnabel & Antje Weyh (2022): Does working at a start-up pay off? In: Small business economics, Jg. 58, H. 4, S. 2211-2233., 2021-04-26. DOI:10.1007/s11187-021-00508-2

    Abstract

    "Using representative linked employer-employee data for Germany, this paper analyzes short- and long-run differences in labor market performance of workers joining start-ups instead of incumbent firms. Applying entropy balancing and following individuals over ten years, we find huge and long-lasting drawbacks from entering a start-up in terms of wages, yearly income, and (un)employment. These disadvantages hold for all groups of workers and types of start-ups analyzed. Although our analysis of different subsequent career paths highlights important heterogeneities, it does not reveal any strategy through which workers joining start-ups can catch up with the income of similar workers entering incumbent firms."

    Firm Organization with Multiple Establishments (2022)

    Gumpert, Anna, Henrike Steimer & Manfred Antoni (2022): Firm Organization with Multiple Establishments. In: The Quarterly Journal of Economics, Jg. 137, H. 2, S. 1091-1138., 2021-10-03. DOI:10.1093/qje/qjab049

    Abstract

    "We show theoretically and empirically that the managerial organization of multiestablishment firms is interdependent across establishments. To derive our result, we study the effect of geographic frictions on firm organization. In our model, we assume that a CEO’s time is a resource in limited supply, shared across headquarters and establishments. Geographic frictions increase the costs of accessing the CEO. Hiring middle managers at one establishment substitutes for CEO time, which is reallocated across all establishments. Consequently, geographic frictions between the headquarters and one establishment affect the organization of all establishments of a firm. Our model is consistent with novel facts about multiestablishment firm organization that we document using administrative data from Germany. We exploit the opening of high-speed railway routes to show that not only the establishments directly affected by faster travel times but also the other establishments of the firm adjust their organization. Our findings imply that local conditions propagate across space through firm organization." (Author's abstract, © 2021 Oxford University Press) ((en))

    Cost of Inclusion? Intended and Non-intended Effects of the Employment Quota for Workers with Disabilities (2022)

    Abstract

    "This paper analyzes whether financial disincentives affect firm demand for disabled workers. In Germany, firms must pay a noncompliance fine if they do not meet their legal quota for disabled workers. I exploit a threshold in this quota: Firms with fewer than 40 employees are required to employ one disabled worker, whereas firms with 40 or more employees must employ two disabled workers. Using administrative firm data, my results suggest that firms respond partially to the threshold and employ 0.388 more disabled workers when they are located just above the threshold. The effect remains positive after correcting for bunching behavior." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))
