This study examines the long-run impact of air pollution exposure at the month of birth and during pregnancy on labour outcomes in Germany. I match air pollution levels on a federal-state level to a longitudinal survey sample on individuals born in Germany. The study focuses on individuals born between 1985 to 1992, as this time period relates to consistent economic growth in Germany. The main identification ...

The success rate of the linkage was 98%, which is well above the average of previous linkage projects with IAB data. We only find negligible differences ...

In surveys, attempts are increasingly made to link survey data with register, geospatial and/or social media data on an individual level. Usually, this requires informed consent to the data linkage. Respondents must agree to the linking of their survey answers to other datasets, and researchers are obligated to inform them sufficiently. In contrast to other countries, few attempts at obtaining informed ...

This paper exploits the linkage of German administrative social security data (GER: Integrierte Erwerbsbiografien) and survey data from the socio-economic panel (GER: Sozio-ökonomisches Panel, SOEP) for the characterization of measurement error in metrics quantifying individual-specific labor earnings in Germany. We find that survey participants’ decision whether to consent to linkage is non-random ...

We use data from the British Household Panel Survey and Labour Force Survey to examine the relationship between the demand for post compulsory education and prevailing labour market conditions. We explicitly incorporate the role of family resources by allowing effects to differ between young people whose families are home owners and those whose families are not home owners. We find evidence that household ...

Automation transforms work at a rapid pace, with gradually increasing shares of the workforce being at risk of replacement by machines. However, little is known about how this risk is affecting workers. In this study, we investigate the impact of exposure to a high risk of automation at work on the subjective (self-reported health, anxiety, and health satisfaction) and objective (healthcare use and ...
