The behavioural response with respect to actuarial adjustments in the German public pension system is analysed. The introduction of actuarial adjustments serves as a source of exogenous variation to estimate discrete time transition rates into retirement. The analysis is conducted on administrative data from social security records and on survey data in a comparative scenario. Probability mass points ...

I estimate the effect of benefit reductions on the timing of retirement. The introduction of actuarial adjustments in the German public pension system serves as a source of exogenous variation to estimate discrete time transition rates into retirement for individuals of age 60–66. Responses to benefit reductions are elaborated separately for manual and non-manual workers. On average, individuals postpone ...

This study examines an increase in the early retirement age from 60 to 63 for the group of older unemployed men in Germany. As consequence of this policy reform, the time to retirement is increased from the perspective of recently unemployed individuals and therefore serves as a source of exogenous variation. We estimate continuous time hazard models for individuals at risk of leaving the state unemployment ...

We quantify differences in the retirement age between manual and non-manual workers and evaluate these differences in the context of the literature on equality of opportunity. The focus is on the question how individual background during childhood transmits through physical demands of occupations on retirement ages. Individual retrospective data from the German Socio-Economic Panel are used to analyse ...

Since the early 1990s, Germany has implemented social and labour market policies directly or indirectly aimed at the expansion of the low-wage sector. Many studies about the working poor have not shown a serious change in the material living conditions of the employed, though. This can be explained by the basic constitution of the German welfare state and labour market, which protect established employees ...

Legitimiert durch den Verweis auf Prozesse der Globalisierung wurden in Deutschland seit Beginn der 1990er Jahre sozial- und arbeitsmarktpolitische Reformen implementiert, die, direkt oder indirekt, auf den Ausbau des Niedriglohnsektors abzielen. Trotzdem konnte in vielen Studien zum „Working Poor“ – Problem kein tief greifender Wandel der materiellen Lebensbedingungen von Erwerbstätigen nachgewiesen ...

This study analyses differences in individual-level working poverty determinants between Germany and the UK. These differences are linked to institutional patterns at the country level. Here, we observe that the two countries differ especially in bargaining centralisation, employment protection legislation and family policy. At the same time, the levels of decommodification and labour market regulation ...

Hashtagbasierte Diskurse (insbesondere #regrettingmotherhood) und qualitative Befunde aus den Gender Studies deuten darauf hin, dass Mutterschaft einen schädigenden Einfluss auf das mentale Wohlbefinden hat. Analysen auf Basis der repräsentativen Längsschnittdaten des Sozio-oekonomischen Panels zeigen, dass es im Durchschnitt tatsächlich zu einem substanziellen und signifikanten Absinken des mentalen ...

The German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP) study is a rich resource for sociologists, mainly because it offers direct measures of respondents’ contexts. The SOEP data provide (i) information retrieved from individuals themselves, (ii) direct information retrieved from their parents, partners, and organizations, (iii) prospectively collected information on past characteristics, and (iv) regional and spatial ...
