The IAB’s Graduate School (GradAB) and the FAU invites young researchers to its 16th interdisciplinary Ph.D. workshop “Perspectives on (Un-)Employment”.

The workshop will focus on but not be limited to empirical research in the following fields:
- Labor supply, labor demand, and unemployment
- Evaluation of labor market institutions and policies
- Education, qualification, and job tasks
- Wage determination and life-cycle earnings
- Gender, family, and labor market discrimination
- Inequality, poverty, and intergenerational mobility
