Supplementary appendix: Careers in firms: estimating a model of learning, job assignment, and human capital aquisition
Pastorino, Elena (2012)
In this appendix I present details of the model and of the empirical analysis and results of counterfactual experiments omitted from the paper. In Section 1 I describe a simple example that illustrates how, even in the absence of (technological) human capital acquisition, productivity shocks, or separation shocks, the learning component of the model can naturally generate mobility between jobs within a firm and turnover between firms. I also present omitted details of the proofs of Propositions 1, 2, and 3 in the paper. In Section 2 I provide an overview of the numerical solution of the ...

Aggregate real wages: macro fluctuations and micro drivers
Hobijn, Bart; Wiles, Theodore S.; Daly, Mary C. (2011)
Using data from the Current Population Survey from 1980 through 2010 we examine what drives variation and cyclicality in the growth rate of real wages over time. We employ a novel decomposition technique that allows us to divide the time series for median weekly earnings growth into the part associated with the wage growth of persons employed at the beginning and end of the period (the wage growth effect) and the part associated with changes in the composition of earners (the composition effect). The relative importance of these two effects varies widely over the business cycle. When the ...

Wives at work

From 1950 to 1990, married women tripled their hours in the workplace. New research suggests that reduced wage discrimination-not better appliances or higher incomes-caused this sea change in the workforce

Working Paper
Cyclical wages in a search and bargaining model with large firms
Rotemberg, Julio J. (2006)
This paper presents a complete general equilibrium model with flexible wages, where the degree to which wages and productivity change when cyclical employment changes is roughly consistent with postwar U.S. data. Firms with market power are assumed to bargain simultaneously with many employees, each of whom finds himself matched with a firm only after a process of search. When employment increases as a result of reductions in market power, the marginal product of labor falls. This fall tempers the bargaining power of workers and thus dampens the increase in their real wages. The procyclical ...
