Download or read book Uncertainty and the Employment Dynamics of Small and Large Businesses written by Vivek Ghosal and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2015-01-14 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We examine the impact of uncertainty on employment dynamics. Alternative measures of uncertainty are constructed based on the survey of professional forecasters, and regressionbased forecasting models for GDP growth, inflation, S&P500 stock price index, and fuel prices. Our results indicate that greater uncertainty has a negative impact on growth of employment, and the effects are primarily felt by the relatively smaller businesses; the impact on large businesses are generally non-existent or weaker. Our results suggest that to truly understand the effects of uncertainty on employment dynamics, we need to focus on the relatively smaller and entrepreneurial businesses. We discuss implications for the framing of economic policy.
Download or read book Producer Dynamics written by Timothy Dunne and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2009-05-15 with total page 623 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Census Bureau has recently begun releasing official statistics that measure the movements of firms in and out of business and workers in and out of jobs. The economic analyses in Producer Dynamics exploit this newly available data on establishments, firms, and workers, to address issues in industrial organization, labor, growth, macroeconomics, and international trade. This innovative volume brings together a group of renowned economists to probe topics such as firm dynamics across countries; patterns of employment dynamics; firm dynamics in nonmanufacturing industries such as retail, health services, and agriculture; employer-employee turnover from matched worker/firm data sets; and turnover in international markets. Producer Dynamics will serve as an invaluable reference to economists and policy makers seeking to understand the links between firms and workers, and the sources of economic dynamics, in the age of globalization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: '. . . this is an interesting and valuable book. . . a genuinely useful contribution to the literature. . . It will help all those who are engaged in exploring the relationship between education and training on the one hand and obtaining and maintaining employment on the other hand.' - Stephen Drodge, International Journal of Educational Development Education and training are of critical importance to individual employment prospects. This book questions whether the policies that govern education, training and employment actually facilitate or inhibit social integration. the authors analyse initial entry into the labour market and subsequent movements between employers, and explore links between education, training and the labour market. the book argues that although education is a good predictor of labour market integration and employment potential, and despite political efforts, social background nevertheless remains influential. the importance of continued training to improve opportunities for promotion is also demonstrated.

Download or read book Employment Dynamics and Business Relocation written by David Neumark and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We analyze and assess new evidence on employment dynamics from a new data source - the National Establishment Time Series (NETS). The NETS offers advantages over existing data sources for studying employment dynamics, including tracking business establishment relocations that can contribute to job creation or destruction on a regional level. Our primary purpose in this paper is to assess the reliability of the NETS data along a number of dimensions, and we conclude that it is a reliable data source although not without limitations. We also illustrate the usefulness of the NETS data by reporting, for California, a full decomposition of employment change into its six constituent processes, including job creation and destruction stemming from business relocation, which has figured prominently in policy debates but on which there has been no systematic evidence.
Download or read book Critical Issues on Changing Dynamics in Employee Relations and Workforce Diversity written by Yadav, Radha and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2021-02-05 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past four decades have seen unprecedented social and economic changes that have demanded a transformation in existing employee relation practices. Shifts in demographics, gender diversity, and an increased mobility of the workforce across the board has changed the landscape in which organizations operate. Against this backdrop, attitudes towards work and careers have changed, leading to different expectations of the workplace. These and other contextual changes mean that existing strategies of employee relation may no longer be effective. Critical Issues on Changing Dynamics in Employee Relations and Workforce Diversity is a collection of pioneering research that addresses the challenges and issues pertaining to the changing dynamics of employee relations and provides additional support to better deal with critical issues related to people management. While highlighting topics including employee engagement, workplace culture, and diversified workforce, this book is ideally designed for human resource managers, managers, executives, researchers, business professionals, academicians, and students seeking current studies on critical matters in employee relation techniques and practices.

This book was released on 2012-10-25 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gibt es einen Zusammenhang zwischen der regionalen Branchenstruktur und der Beschäftigungsentwicklung? Wolfgang Dauth ist dieser Frage in drei eigenständigen Studien auf den Grund gegangen. Sie beleuchten jeweils unterschiedliche thematische Teilaspekte und werden in den drei zentralen Kapiteln dieses Bandes behandelt: Kapitel 2 ("Agglomeration and regional employment dynamics") belegt die Existenz von Agglomerationsvorteilen für den regionalen Arbeitsmarkt: In agglomerierten lokalen Branchen ist das Beschäftigungswachstum nachhaltiger als in nicht-agglomerierten. In Kapitel 3 ("The mysteries of trade") wird analysiert, inwiefern die Wechselwirkungen zwischen unterschiedlichen, aber verwandten Branchen die Existenz von Agglomerationsvorteilen erklären. Gemeinsame Arbeitsmärkte, so das zentrale Ergebnis, spielen dabei eine Schlüsselrolle. In Kapitel 4 ("The rise of the East and the Far East") untersucht Dauth, wie sich der internationale Handel auf Regionen mit unterschiedlicher Branchenstruktur auswirkt. Er weist nach, dass Deutschland durch den wirtschaftlichen Aufstieg Chinas und Osteuropas unterm Strich massive Beschäftigungsgewinne verzeichnen konnte. Publikationssprache: Englisch
Download or read book The Recent Decline in Employment Dynamics written by Henry R. Hyatt and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, the rate at which workers and businesses exchange jobs has declined in the United States. Between 1998 and 2010, rates of job creation, job destruction, hiring, and separation declined dramatically, and the rate of job-to-job flows fell by about half. Little is known about the nature and extent of these changes, and even less about their causes and implications. In this paper, we document and attempt to explain the recent decline in employment dynamics. Our empirical work relies on the four leading datasets of quarterly employment dynamics in the United States - the Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics (LEHD), the Business Employment Dynamics (BED), the Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS), and the Current Population Survey (CPS).We find that changes in the composition of the labor force and of employers explain relatively little of the decline. Exploiting some identities that relate the different measures to each other, we find that job creation and destruction could explain as much of a third of the decline in hires and separations, while job-to-job flows may explain more of the decline. We end our paper with a discussion of different possible explanations and their relative merits.
Download or read book The Reemergence of Self Employment written by Richard Arum and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-10 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents results of a cross-national research project on self-employment in eleven advanced economies and demonstrates how and why the practice is reemerging in modern societies. While traditional forms of self-employment, such as skilled crafts work and shop keeping, are in decline, they are being replaced by self-employment in both professional and unskilled occupations. Differences in self-employment across societies depend on the extent to which labor markets are regulated and the degree to which intergenerational family relationships are a primary factor structuring social organization. For each of the eleven countries analyzed, the book highlights the extent to which social background, educational attainment, work history, family status, and gender affect the likelihood that an individual will enter--and continue--a particular type of self-employment. While involvement with self-employment is becoming more common, it is occurring for individuals in activities that are more diverse, unstable and transitory than in years past.
