Abstract |
Labour market conditions at the time and place of potential entry into the labour market are shown to have a substantial and persistent impact on adult employment prospects. In-dividuals who face particularly depressed local labour markets when they graduate from secondary education, are – other things equal - subject to relatively high rates of non-employment during their whole prime-age work career. Building on a unique combination of micro- and macro data from Norway, we show that these effects are robust with respect to model specification and conditioning variables, and that they are not limited to indi-viduals with a particularly disadvantaged background. |
