Hi #EconSky! I’m a PhD Candidate in Economics at Uppsala University. My #EconJMP investigates how firms’ previous employment experience in a particular occupation affects hiring standards, wages, and post-hiring outcomes. Find out more about my research here: sites.google.com/view/dogangu...

I’m excited to share my JMP, in which I develop a model of two-tier collective wage bargaining---where central negotiations are supplemented with local adjustments---in a frictional labor market. 1/8 Website: sites.google.com/view/agnetab...

Should we subsidise the care for elderly people? Patrizia blends elegant theoretical with excellent empirical work to show that an increase of the subsidy in fact paid for itself. She is an enormously promising researcher. Check out her work!

New IZA DP: The gender wage gap is much narrower when jobs are covered by collective agreements with less local flexibility among Swedish blue collar workers. Effects are largest when women are few, or rents are scarce: www.iza.org/publications...

Research by Arash Nekoei (IIES), Jósef Sigurðsson (Dept of Economics) at Stockholm U & Dominik Wehr at SSE reveals significant economic fallout from workplace burnout especially impacting women. Burnout, more common in women, leads to lasting income loss and affects family stability. bit.ly/4cxr8z6

A quite fascinating aspect of the Swedish collective wage bargaining system is that unions, employer associations and their respective confederations, invest a lot in producing their own knowledge about the state and development of the economy. As it turns out, they do it quite well. t.co/1v1YUuOWPx

If you're a senior male economist and would be interested in discussing the drafting of an open letter re the newly announced IZA leadership change, e-mail me. Female econs are rightly tired of the burden of such efforts falling on them.
