IZA/Leiden University/OECD Workshop: Recent Advances in Labor Economics Using Linked Employer-Employee Data
About the Workshop
The workshop seeks to bring together researchers who share an interest in using linked employer-employee data for innovative and policy-relevant research. The workshop will take place on Thursday 22 (from around 1PM) and Friday 23 May (until around 6PM). The workshop, organized in the context of the OECD's LinkEED v 2.0 project, seeks to enhance our understanding of the role of policies and institutions in economic and labor market outcomes using cross-country linked employer-employee data. We welcome submissions of applied papers in labor economics that use single-country or cross-country linked employer-employee data in all areas including:
- Gender pay gaps, family policies and pay transparency rules
- The integration of migrants and the role of firms
- Frictions, job mobility and wages
- Intergenerational mobility
- Econometrics of linked employer-employee data
