matching – Suchprozesse am Arbeitsmarkt
Offene Stellen bei gleichzeitiger Arbeitslosigkeit - was Arbeitsmarkttheorien u. a. mit "unvollkommener Information" begründen, ist für Unternehmen und Arbeitsuchende oft nur schwer nachzuvollziehen: Unternehmen können freie Stellen nicht besetzen, trotzdem finden Arbeitsuchende nur schwer den passenden Job. Wie gestalten sich die Suchprozesse bei Unternehmen und Arbeitsuchenden, welche Konzessionen sind beide Seiten bereit einzugehen, wie lässt sich das "matching" verbessern?
Diese Infoplattform bietet wissenschaftliche Literatur zur theoretischen und empirischen Auseinandersetzung mit dem Thema.

Measuring spatial mismatch and job access inequity based on transit-based job accessibility for poor job seekers (2020)
Zitatform
Liu, Dong & Mei-Po Kwan (2020): Measuring spatial mismatch and job access inequity based on transit-based job accessibility for poor job seekers. In: Travel behaviour and society, Jg. 19, S. 184-193. DOI:10.1016/j.tbs.2020.01.005
Abstract
"The few spatial mismatch studies that have examined spatial mismatch based on job accessibility consider travel time as the sole travel impedance. However, travel cost (e.g., fuel cost, parking fee and transit fare) is also an important factor in determining job accessibility especially for poor job seekers and needs to be integrated into job accessibility measure, because socially vulnerable people including poor job seekers could be disadvantaged by high travel cost (e.g., poor job seekers discouraged from using transit services for commuting due to high fare). By focusing on transit-based job accessibility, this study seeks to improve the assessment of spatial mismatch based on job accessibility by taking transit fare into account and determine the inequity in job accessibility for poor job seekers by conducting comparisons across areas and races. Based on a study of the Chicago Metropolitan Area, we first determine the demand for each census tract’s jobs based on a gravity model that integrates both transit-based travel time and transit fare of poor job seekers from other census tracts. Then, we measure the job accessibility for each census tract based on a gravity model considering the attraction of low-pay jobs weighted by job demand and the friction of transit-based travel time and transit fare. Finally, we assess spatial mismatch by comparing the job accessibility of central city poor job seekers against their suburban counterparts and determine the job access inequity for poor job seekers by comparing the results before and after including transit fare across different areas and races. The results show that central city poor job seekers, either before or after including transit fare, do not suffer from spatial mismatch and tend to have higher job accessibility compared to their suburban counterparts. However, the results obtained from including transit fare are quite different from those that considered travel time only, especially with respect to the differences between poor job seekers of different races living in different areas. For policymakers to be fully informed about spatial mismatch, it is important to take both travel time and transit fare into account." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

How to retain motivated employees in their jobs? (2020)
Zitatform
Martin, Ludivine (2020): How to retain motivated employees in their jobs? In: Economic and Industrial Democracy, Jg. 41, H. 4, S. 910-953. DOI:10.1177/0143831X17741528
Abstract
"This article examines the contribution of human resource management (HRM) and information and communication technologies (ICTs) in the retention of motivated employees. The author uses a representative random sample of private sector employees from Western Europe. The data set contains information on employees' motivations, on-the-job search and workplace environment. The results show that HRM and ICT bundles are positively related to motivations. Being motivated for intrinsic and personal growth reasons decreases the likelihood to search while being motivated for rewards or compulsion reasons increases it. HRM strengthens the likelihood to search in the same way, while ICTs tend to increase the likelihood to search of all employees." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Abstract
"What role do emotions play as a job seeker eyes up a potential employer? Our contribution to research into employer attractiveness explores the role that affective states play in potential applicants' subjective perceptions of companies' employer attractiveness in the early phase of job seeking. We adopt a concurrent verbalization approach to inquire into qualified potential applicants' processes of interpreting employer branding material. Based on these data, we provide insights into the neglected role of emotions in research on potential applicants' assessments of the appeal of an organization. The findings from a multistep qualitative data analysis produce the following four propositions: (1) strong emotions influence the outcome of the opinion-making process; (2) negative emotions play a crucial role in potential applicants' evaluations of employer attractiveness; (3) some contents of employer information elicit negative emotions, whereas their complementary counterparts do not elicit positive affective reactions; and (4) expectations towards an employer and comparisons among employers influence potential applicants' sentiments about individual employers."

Abstract
"To evaluate search effort monitoring of unemployed workers, it is important to take account of post-unemployment wages and job-to-job mobility. We structurally estimate a model with search channels, using an RCT in which monitoring is randomized. The data include registers and survey data on search behavior. We find that the opportunity to move to better-paid jobs in employment reduces the extent to which monitoring induces substitution towards formal search channels in unemployment. Job mobility compensates for adverse long-run effects of monitoring on wages. We examine counterfactual policies against moral hazard, like reemployment bonuses and changes of the benefits path."

Abstract
"This paper investigates the effect of the size of the local labor market on skill mismatch. Using survey data for Germany, I find that workers in large cities are both less likely to be overqualified for their job and to work in a different field than the one for which they trained. Different empirical strategies are employed to account for the potential sorting of talented workers into more urbanized areas. Results on individuals who have never moved away from the place in which they grew up and fixed effects estimates obtaining identification through regional migrants suggest that sorting does not fully explain the existing differences in qualification mismatch across areas. This provides evidence of the existence of agglomeration economies through better matches. However, lower qualification mismatch in larger cities is found to explain at best a small part of the urban wage premium." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Brunello, Giorgio & Patricia Wruuck (2019): Skill shortages and skill mismatch in Europe. A review of the literature. (IZA discussion paper 12346), Bonn, 34 S.
Abstract
"Labour markets are currently in a phase of cyclical recovery and undergoing structural transformation due to globalisation, demographic trends, advancing digital technologies and automation and changes in labour market institutions. Against this background, businesses increasingly report that the limited availability of skills poses an impediment to corporate investment. Genuine skill constraints can negatively affect labour productivity and hamper the ability to innovate and adopt technological developments. For individual Europeans, not having 'the right skills' limits employability prospects and access to quality jobs. For Europe at large, persistent skill gaps and mismatches come at economic and social costs. This paper reviews the recent economic literature on skill mismatch and skill shortages with a focus on Europe a focus on Europe." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Abstract
"We use online job application data to study the relationship between search intensity and search duration. The data allow us to control for job seeker composition and the evolution of available job openings over the duration of search. We find that, within an individual search spell, search intensity declines continuously. We also find that longer-duration job seekers search more intensely throughout their search. They tend to be older, male, nonemployed, and live in areas with weaker labor markets. Our findings contradict standard assumptions of labor search models. We discuss how to reconcile the theory with our evidence." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Abstract
"We present a model of directed job search with asymmetric information regarding worker type. While job applicants know their productivity type, firms can only observe the duration of unemployment as well as a noisy signal of worker type. Firms can offer an unscreened wage or a wage that is conditioned on passing the screening and the duration of unemployment. This framework leads to three possible equilibria, which depend on model parameter values. We describe the circumstances under, which each equilibrium may result and the empirical implications of each equilibrium. Our model sheds light into wage scarring, unemployment duration, wage dispersion and firm-wage sorting, as well as the effects of unemployment insurance and minimum wages on search behavior and the distribution of wages."

Abstract
"This study contributes to the research on motherhood penalties by investigating based on German longitudinal register data whether mothers take longer to search for a job than childless women. We develop a unique research design to test the theory of statistical discrimination as well as the theory of status-based discrimination. We use establishment closures as a starting point that creates equal conditions for all previously employed women. Following a subsequent coarsened exact matching approach, we investigate the job search length of almost 3,000 comparable full-time working childless women and mothers from almost 700 establishments by applying event history techniques. Even after extensive robustness checks that back up the main findings, we can show that mothers have lower transition rates to re-employment than childless women. When including additional information, such as higher age of the youngest child or shorter parental leave durations, both of which serve as indicators of higher labour market attachment, we find reduced differences and buffering effects on the motherhood penalty."

Abstract
"We develop a search model with risk-averse households to study the impact of tax progressivity on labor supply and income inequality across education groups. Labor supply responses are considered along both intensive and extensive margins. Our quantitative results are consistent with those of the existing empirical literature. First, we find that a decline in tax progressivity associated with the Tax Reform Act of 1986 has a significant impact on the aggregate labor supply with approximately 61 percent occurred along the extensive margin. Second, households differ in their labor and income responses to tax reform. A decline in tax progressivity changes the income composition of each household by affecting labor supplies and asset holdings. This leads to an increase in income inequality. Therefore, the tax share paid by the most educated group rises due to an increase in capital income after tax reforms are instituted." (Author's abstract, © De Gruyter) ((en))

Abstract
"A displaced worker might rationally prefer to wait through a long spell of unemployment instead of seeking employment at a lower wage in a job he is not trained for. I evaluate this trade-off using micro-data on displaced workers. To achieve identification, I exploit that the more a worker invested in occupation-specific human capital, the more costly it is for him to switch occupations and the higher is therefore his incentive to wait. I find that between 9% and 17% of total unemployment in the United States can be attributed to wait unemployment." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Abstract
"Studies show that the unemployed face serious disadvantages in the labour market and that the social stigma of unemployment is one explanation. In this paper, we focus on the unemployed's expectations of being stigmatized (stigma consciousness) and the consequences of such negative expectations on job search attitudes and behaviour. Using data from the panel study 'Labour Market and Social Security' (PASS), we find that the unemployed with high stigma consciousness suffer from reduced well-being and health. Regarding job search, the stigmatized unemployed are more likely to expect that their chances of re-employment are low, but in contrast, they are more likely to place a high value on becoming re-employed. Instead of becoming discouraged and passive, we find that stigmatized unemployed individuals increase their job search effort compared to other unemployed individuals. However, despite their higher job search effort, the stigma-conscious unemployed do not have better re-employment chances." (Author's abstract, © Springer-Verlag) ((en))

Abstract
"Current models fail to concurrently account for several important empirical regularities in the housing and labor markets. I augment the Diamond-Mortensen-Pissarides (DMP) search and matching model of the labor market with a housing market characterized by search and matching frictions, integrating both markets in a coherent macroeconomic model. The model provides a framework to explain how shocks and frictions which originate in the labor market spill over into the housing market and vise versa. The model accounts for procyclical, serially correlated real estate values, rental rates and expected real estate appreciation. Further, it accounts for increases in wages, housing costs and willingness to commute as a result of increases in geographic amenities. The model is also consistent with the empirical relationship between vacancy rates in the housing market and separation rates in the labor market. Simulations demonstrate that certain land-use policies can mitigate permanent shocks to labor productivity and the level of geographic amenities." (Author's abstract, © De Gruyter) ((en))

Abstract
"In this study we introduce a new potential data source on migration intentions in the form of online job seekers actively searching for a job in a country other than their current location. We characterize job seeker interest across national borders by measuring user behavior on a major job search website. We show the job search data are strongly positively related to available OECD migration data and also find that in a gravity model both the determinants and the relative importance of the determinants for job search are similar to those in the literature for realized migration."

Abstract
"Firms select not only how many, but also which workers to hire. Yet, in most labor market models all workers have the same probability of being hired. We argue that selective hiring crucially affects welfare analysis. We set up a model that is isomorphic to a search model under random hiring but allows for selective hiring. With selective hiring, the positive predictions of the model change very little, but implications for welfare are different for two reasons. First, a hiring externality occurs with random but not with selective hiring. Second, the welfare costs of unemployment are much larger with selective hiring, because unemployment risk is distributed unequally across workers." (Author's abstract, © 2019 Elsevier) ((en))

Abstract
"This paper investigates how working location influences jobseekers' subsequent spatial job search. Further, it is assessed to what extent mobility between working regions is associated with wage growth. The results show that the working region functions as a prominent geographical anchor around which the new job search is focused. The jobseekers that do find a job far away from their old working region receive a small wage premium, but this premium disappears if selectivity is taken into account. It is concluded that employees demonstrate substantial stickiness to their working locations, and that this is motivated by asymmetry in search costs. No evidence was found that mobility between working regions in itself affects wages." (Author's abstract, Published by arrangement with John Wiley & Sons) ((en))

Abstract
"As in many countries, young adult workers in the United States have experienced tremendous employment volatility in recent years. In this paper, we examine the role personality plays in determining the duration of unemployment among young adults in the United States between 2008 and 2015. Evidence from estimation of a Competing Risks Model shows that when faced with unemployment, conscientious individuals are significantly more likely to find employment. Individuals scoring higher in neuroticism are more likely to leave the workforce and less likely to go back to school, while more agreeable individuals are more likely to go back to school. Because personality remains malleable for young adults, these results have implications for the literature related to job-search behavior as well as for educational and job-training programs."

Horizontal mismatch between employment and field of education: evidence from a systematic literature review (2019)

Abstract
"This paper provides a systematic review of the growing literature on the poor match between employees' field degree and the job requirements, also referred to as horizontal mismatch. We identify the different definitions used in the literature and find that each measure of horizontal mismatch yields substantially different incidence rates. We discuss the validity of the different measures and conclude that a more uniform definition of horizontal mismatch is needed. The likelihood of horizontal mismatch is among other things determined by the extent to which employees possess general skills as opposed to occupation-specific skills, and, it appears to be more frequently present among older workers. Compared to well-matched employees, horizontally mismatched workers generally incur a wage penalty, are less satisfied with their jobs, and are more likely to regret their study programme. The ensuing findings offer guidance to prevent horizontal mismatch as well as a roadmap for future research." (Author's abstract, Published by arrangement with John Wiley & Sons) ((en))
