So very delighted to see our paper (with the amazing @tfliao) published @ESR_news!
We find that the prevalence, frequency and duration of unemployment can explain part of the rise in the Dutch wage disparities!
📢 New in!
Unemployment is central in labour market disparities, but rarely studies have linked its dynamics with the overall wage inequality, until now!

Mismatches between educational qualifications and occupations lead to health issues.
Why? Because of psychosocial rather than material problems.
Read this newly published paper @SSReditorial to find out more 👇
How does education-occupation mismatch contribute to health disparity? New research finds differential effects on health between vertical and horizontal mismatches. The pathway is through psychosocial processes not reduced material well being. sciencedirect.com/science/ar… @drhuizheng
Happy to present our work on skill change and new skill adoption in cities at the International PhD Course on Economic Geography in Utrecht @SGPL_UU
Thanks for the feedback Christian and @CCastaldi!
A pre-print for another paper from the @CAREER_erc project team, by @LabussiereMarie and @thijs_bol!
It analyzes the relationship between occupations and skills in the British labor market:

Some colleagues (and sometimes myself) have wondered what I have been doing behind my computer for the last two years. Enough suspense!
@thijs_bol and I are happy to share the pre-print of our (affectionally called) "bundles of skills paper".

New analysis of the 🇳🇱 2017-'19 reform increasing youth minimum wage showed no negative employment effects and wage increases for young workers, together with positive spillover effects, especially for low-wage workers. 👇
The Young Bunch. @van_bezooijen, @wvdberge, & Salomons estimate effects of an increase in Dutch youth min. wage on low-paid workers’ employment & earnings. They find no employment effects, instead overall rise in earnings for those affected @SageJournalsdoi.org/10.1177/001979392412…

🚨 I am excited to share my JMP!
"Scale-Biased Technical Change and Inequality"
I propose a new theory on why some technologies increase inequality, while others reduce it. I provide causal evidence from the adoption of steam engines and electric motors to support the theory.
How do the employer and workplace influence the working career of older employees? In this brand new Socio-Economic Review @SASE_Meeting paper I look at the impact of workplace retention practices on older employees' early labour market exit in DK (1/5)
