We estimate the spatially heterogeneous effects of the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic on labor market dynamics in Germany until December 2021. While initially slightly stronger in rural regions and large agglomerations, adverse effects quickly become more pronounced and persistent in large agglomerations compared to all other region types. We as...
This paper investigates whether the density of local labour markets in Germany impacts on the wage of new employment relationships and whether corresponding urbanization economies differ significantly across distinct types of transitions to employment. The results suggest rather small static urbanization benefits. Doubling employment density increa...
Human capital is a driving factor of innovation and economic growth. Urban economies in particular depend on highly qualified workers; therefore, attracting highly skilled workers is a key factor for cities' economic prospects. We analyze the determinants that influence the migration of highly skilled workers by investigating the migration balance...
Differences in regional unemployment are still pronounced in Germany, especially between eastern and western Germany. Although the skill level seems important for the relationship between regional disparities and labor migration, corresponding empirical evidence is scarce. Applying dynamic panel models, we investigate the impact of labor mobility d...
Human capital is a driving factor of innovation and economic growth. Economic prospects of cities depend on high qualified workers’ knowledge and therefore, attracting highly qualified workers plays a fundamental role for cities’ prospects. This study contributes to the question which factors primarily determine the mobility-decision of highly qual...
Striking disparities characterise the population growth of cities in industrialised countries. Some cities suffer from ongoing population decline, whereas other cities have experienced increasing numbers of inhabitants in recent years. Whether labour market conditions or amenities via their impact on migration primarily account for differences in c...

als auch das Qualifikationsniveau der Beschäftigten berücksichtigt werden. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die Arbeitskräftemobilität
in Deutschland wesentlich durch die unterschiedlichen Arbeitsmarktbedingungen in Ost- und Westd...
"Differences in regional labour market conditions are still pronounced in Germany, especially between the Eastern and the Western part. Traditional neoclassical models imply that labour mobility should reduce disparities. In contrast, models that include externalities or selective migration suggest that regional differences might well increase due...

Bei dieser Version der Besch�ftigtenstichprobe wurden die direkten Identifikatoren - die Sozialversicherungs- und originale Betriebsnummer - durch sys...

Rampant mass unemployment and the discussion about the future of social security raises many questions. A study examines to what extent social welfare benefits are accepted amongst the population
Die grassierende Massenarbeitslosigkeit und die Diskussion um die Zukunft sozialer Sicherung werfen viele Fragen auf. Wie sozialstaatliche Leistungen für Arbeitslose in der Bevölkerung akzeptiert werden, beantwortet eine Studie
"The Joint Task 'Improvement of the Regional Economic Structure' delimits the German promotion areas. For this purpose different indicators reflecting the labor market situation and regional income are linked. So far, no indicator is considered that indicates the demographic change of regions. The Institute for Employment Research was commissioned...
