This paper tests for state dependence in histories of unemployment and job mobility from the first six waves of the German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP). Transitions between states of employment and unemployment are modelled as outcomes of binomial probit processes which are first and higher order Markov. The use of simulation estimation allows quite general intertemporal covariance structures in order ...

In Germany, students are streamed at age ten into an academic or non-academic track. We demonstrate that the randomly allocated disadvantage of being born just before as opposed to just after the cutoff date for school entry leads to substantially different schooling experiences. Relatively young students are initially only two-thirds as likely to be assigned to the academic track. The possibility ...

This paper aims to estimate the effects of a reduction in the size of parental benefits in the second year after birth on maternal labour supply. I exploit exogeneous variation in the size of benefits that occurred due to reforms of the parental benefit system on the national and federal state level in Germany. The reforms led to reductions in the size of benefits depending on the household type and ...

Two years ago, DIW Berlin introduced “Familienarbeitszeit”, which provides financial incentives for families in which both partners decide to take on reduced full-time employment (working hours amounting to roughly 80 percent of a full-time job). This study investigates further developments of this model: In addition to a more generous wage replacement variant, the study examines a simplified variant ...

Since the millennium, the labour market participation of women and mothers is increasing across European countries. Several work/care policy measures underlie this evolution. At the same time, the labour market behaviour of fathers, as well as their involvement in care work, is relatively unchanging, meaning that employed mothers are facing an increased burden with respect to gainful employment and ...

The paper extends a static discrete-choice labor supply model by adding participation and hours constraints. We identify restrictions by survey information on the eligibility and search activities of individuals as well as actual and desired hours. This provides for a more robust identification of preferences and constraints. Both, preferences and restrictions are allowed to vary by and are related ...
