2022-09-12 The Impact of ICT and Robots on Labour Market Outcomes of Demographic Groups in Europe
authors:    /   / 
We study the age- and gender-specific labour market effects of two key modern technologies – Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), and robots – in 14 European countries between 2010-2018. To identify the causal effects of technology adoption, we utilize the variation of technology adoption between ...
2022-07-22 How PES strategies for reaching young NEETs can be improved?
authors:  
The purpose of this policy brief is to call attention to the lack of outreach to vulnerable youth by focusing on the experiences of four European countries (Spain, Hungary, Italy, and Poland). We also show why the PES might not make sufficient efforts to incentivise ...
2022-07-06 Informing young unemployed people about support measures – does it work?
authors:    / 
We conducted a survey experiment in Poland to investigate how providing young people from the NEET group with information affected their rate of registration with the public employment services. The individuals assigned to the treatment group received information about the services offered by the PES. ...
2022-04-13 Working from home during a pandemic – a discrete choice experiment in Poland
authors:    /   /   / 
The COVID-19 pandemic has transformed working from home from a rarity to a widely adopted job amenity. We study workers’ willingness to pay for working from home, and how it may be affected by subjective and objective assessments of COVID-19-related risks. We conducted a discrete ...
2022-01-12 The impact of robots on labour market transitions in Europe.
authors:    /   /   /   / 
We study the effects of robot exposure on worker flows in 16 European countries between 1998-2017. Overall, we find small negative effects on job separations and small positive effects on job findings. Labour costs are shown to be a major driver of cross-country differences: the ...
2021-09-30 Flexibility of working time arrangements and female labor market outcome
authors:    /   / 
We use data from 2019 EU LFS to study gender and parenthood gaps in flexibility in working time arrangements. We find that overall in Europe, there is no statistically significant gender difference in access to flexible work arrangements. However, women are less likely than men ...
2021-08-24 Labor supply effects of a universal cash transfer
authors:    / 
Unconditional cash transfers in the form of a universal basic income, a universal basic pension or a universal child benefit are increasingly being discussed in many countries. In this article, I investigate the labor supply effects of the introduction of a large unconditional cash benefit. ...
2021-03-31 How to reduce the social costs of coal mine closures?
authors:    /   /   / 
As a result of decarbonisation, the number of jobs in coal mining and mining-related industries will drop. However, the risk of increased unemployment related to this process can be minimised. To that end, to mitigate the consequences of the transition away from coal, it is ...
2021-03-26 Outreach activities of public employment services in Poland
authors:    / 
This publication was created as part of the “Youth Employment PartnerSHIP” project, which seeks to combat unemployment among young people. It measures the effectiveness of instruments to support young people who aren’t working or studying in four countries: Poland, Spain, Italy and Hungary. The project ...
2020-06-17 The global distribution of routine and non-routine work
authors:    /   /   / 
Studies of the effects of technology and globalization on employment and inequality commonly assume that occupations are identical around the world in the job tasks they require. To relax this assumption, we develop a regression-based methodology to predict the country-specific routine task intensity (RTI) of ...
2020-06-08 The gender dimension of occupational exposure to contagion in Europe
authors:    /   /   / 
We study the gender dimension of occupational exposure to contagious diseases spread by the respiratory or close-contact route. We show that in Europe, women are more exposed to contagion, as they are more likely than men to work in occupations that require contact with diseases, ...
2020-06-03 The heterogenous regional effects of minimum wages in Poland
authors:    /   / 
Since 2008, Poland has been among the EU countries that have increased their minimum wage levels the most, following period in the mid-2000s during which the country’s minimum wage was barely raised. We evaluate the impact of these minimum wage hikes on employment and wage ...
