unemployment Labor Force Composition and sickness absence a panel data study
Health Economics, 2005Co-Authors: Jan Erik Askildsen, Espen Bratberg, Oivind Anti NilsenAbstract:Sickness absence tends to be negatively correlated with unemployment rates. In addition to pure health effects, this may be due to moral hazard behavior by workers who are fully insured against income loss during sickness and to physicians who meet demand for medical certificates. Alternatively, it may reflect changes in the Composition of the Labor Force, with more sickness-prone workers entering the Labor Force in upturns. A panel of Norwegian register data is used to analyze long-term sickness absences. The unemployment rate is shown to be negatively associated with the probability of absence, and with the number of days of sick leave. Restricting the sample to workers who are present in the whole sample period, the negative relationship between absence and unemployment becomes clearer. This indicates that procyclical variations in sickness absence are caused by established workers and not by the Composition of the Labor Force.

integration in export marketing channels and farms Labor Force Composition female agricultural workers in the moroccan vegetable sector
Agribusiness, 2021Co-Authors: Celine Bignebat, Fatima El HadadgauthierAbstract:The Moroccan agricultural sector employs around 40% of the country's total working population. Since the early 1990s, there has been a striking increase in the proportion of female wage Laborers. This article investigates the effect of the gendered Composition of the agricultural wage Labor Force on horticultural farms. We draw on an original data set collected in 2010, comprising 240 agricultural holdings located in the region of Souss Massa. The results suggest that local Labor shortages do not play a major role in explaining the ratio of female hired wage Laborers. Instead, it seems that quality requirements are encouraging farm holdings to hire a female Labor Force. [EconLit citations: Q12, O13, J43]

changing Labor Force Composition and the natural rate of unemployment
Chicago Fed Letter, 2015Co-Authors: Daniel Aaronson, Arian Seifoddini, Daniel G SullivanAbstract:This article discusses why changes in the Composition of the Labor Force may have lowered the natural (or trend) rate of unemployment—the unemployment rate that would prevail in an economy making full use of its productive resources—to 5 percent or less. A lower natural rate may help explain why wage inflation and price inflation remain low despite actual unemployment recently reaching 5.5 percent—a figure only slightly above prominent estimates of the natural rate, such as that of the Congressional Budget Office (CBO). Demographic and other changes should continue to lower the natural rate for at least the remainder of the decade.
