Did migration in the 1980's narrowing the North-South divide?
No full textThis paper integrates empirical analysis of the decision to migrate from a region with that of destination choice. Thus we are able to study how net migration, and not just gross outflows, are influenced by regional labour market circumstances. The results suggest that relative regional wages rates, but not relative unemployment and vacancy rates, are effective in reallocating labour from regions experiencing adverse demand shocks. We find little evidence that manual labour is migrating from those regions with relatively high manual unemployment, but that migration plays a more conventional role in the regional adjustment process for non-manual workers
The influence of pensions on job mobility
No full textIn this paper we construct a model of the loss of firm-specific capital suffered by employees with occupational pensions who change job. The simplest loss function may be represented as the product of job tenure and years to retirement. Estimates of logit equations for individual job search in Great Britain suggest that the effect of pension status can be satisfactorily captured by this simple loss function. These equations and others for job turnover indicate that membership of an occupational pension scheme substantially reduces job mobility
