Women with children tend to earn lower hourly wages than women without children - a shortfall known as the ‘motherhood wage gap’. While many studies provide evidence for this empirical fact and explore several hypotheses about its causes, the impact of motherhood on job dimensions other than wages has scarcely been investigated. In order to assess changes in women's jobs around motherhood, I use ...

Many countries are currently expanding access to child care for young children. But are all children equally likely to benefit from such expansions? We address this question by adopting a marginal treatment effects framework. We study the West German setting where high quality center-based care is severely rationed and use within state differences in child care supply as exogenous variation in child ...

What is the impact of after-school center-based care on the skill development of primary school-aged children? Answering this question is challenging due to non-random selection of children into after-school center-based care. We use detailed data of the German Child Panel and employ a value added estimation strategy to deal with the problem of reversed causality and omitted variable bias. While we ...

This paper examines the willingness of the unemployed to migrate in order to exit unemployment. The empirical estimation is based on data from the German Socio Economic Panel (GSOEP) from the years 2001 to 2009. Following a bivariate probit approach, results are obtained estimating the joint probability of being unemployed and to move to account for the endogeneity of the unemployment variable in the ...

This study provides an analysis of the effect of migration and commuting on regional wage disparities in Germany. Using the INKAR dataset and the GSOEP from the years 1998 to 2009, dynamic GMM panel estimations are applied to consider dynamics as well as the simultaneity between migration and regional labor market circumstances. To begin with, the influence of migration on relative wage levels is analyzed. ...

Frauen stellen eine zunehmend relevante Gruppe unter den Geflüchteten dar. Ihre Beschäftigungsanteile fallen in Deutschland jedoch noch sehr gering aus. Schlechtere Voraussetzungen und Kinder im Haushalt schränken ihre Arbeitsmarktchancen ein. Um geflüchtete Frauen bei der Integration in den Arbeitsmarkt bestmöglich zu unterstützen, sollte ihre Teilnahme an Integrationsmaßnahmen gefördert werden. Die ...
