Alcohol Consumption, Deterrence and Crime in New York City
Journal of Labor Research - Tập 36 - Trang 103-128 - 2015
This paper investigates the relationship between alcohol consumption,
deterrence, and crime for New York City. We use monthly time-series data from
1983 to 2001 to analyze the impacts of variations in both alcohol consumption
and deterrence on seven “index” crimes. We tackle the endogeneity of arrests and
the police force by exploiting the temporal independence of crime and deterrence
in these hig...
Noncitizen Employment and the Wages of Healthcare Support Workers in the US
Journal of Labor Research - Tập 39 - Trang 433-461 - 2018
This study examines the relative wages of citizens and noncitizens employed as
healthcare support workers as well as examines the effect of noncitizen support
worker employment on the wages of citizen support workers. Relative wage
findings reveal noncitizen support workers with less than eight years of US
residency receive a noncitizen-citizen wage discount statistically significantly
greater tha...
The Effects of Vesting and Locking in Pension Assets on Participation in Employer-Sponsored Pension Plans
Journal of Labor Research - Tập 39 - Trang 178-200 - 2018
This study assesses whether pension vesting and lock-in regulations affect
participation in employer-sponsored pension plans. Specifically, the effects of
Canadian reforms enacted during the 1980s and 1990s are investigated, which
reduced vesting and lock-in requirements from employees being at least 45 years
old and having ten years of continuous plan membership to two years of
membership irrespe...
Wage Returns to English Proficiency in Poland
Journal of Labor Research - Tập 40 - Trang 276-295 - 2019
We investigate the effect of English language proficiency on the wages of native
full-time employees in Poland. Using a unique data set with information on over
600,000 survey respondents polled over the five-year period from 2013 to 2017,
we employ an IV approach founded on a natural experiment - namely, the reform of
foreign language instruction in Polish schools. Our preferred estimates indicat...
The Effect of Family Background on Individual Wages and an Examination of Inequality of Opportunity in India
Journal of Labor Research - Tập 31 - Trang 230-246 - 2010
The paper attempts to explore the role of family background in contributing to
the overall economic inequality in Indian society. Drawing on the recent work on
equality of opportunity, and using the Indian Human Development Survey (IHDS,
2004–05), paper finds that the opportunity share of inequality in wage earnings
in India ranges from 11% to 17% across different age based cohorts. Given the
cons...
Unions in a changing world: Problems and prospects in selected industrialized countries
Journal of Labor Research - Tập 19 - Trang 415-418 - 1998
The effect of type of union on member-nonmember wage differentials
Journal of Labor Research - Tập 8 - Trang 59-65 - 1987
The union-nonunion wage differential can be decomposed into bargaining and
membership effects. While some analysts suggest that they are not separable and
that bargaining power is a function of membership density, others argue that
they are separable and that the former derives from monopoly power while the
latter stems from socialization. Our results support the latter view. We derive
estimates o...
The effects of information technology on recruitment

Labor unions: Victims of their political success?
Journal of Labor Research - Tập 22 - Trang 261-273 - 2001
A glimpse of the future of private sector unions may be gleaned from examining
the past. Union densities have declined for nearly half a century, and
structural and demographic changes, global competition, and various other
factors have caused much of this decline. However, as recognized by early union
leaders, legislative successes that diminish the role of collective bargaining
naturally contrib...
