abstract: 'This article investigates the role of labor market institutions for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
social inequalities in employment. To distinguish institutional impacts
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
for men and women, age groups and educational levels the analysis draws
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
on data from 21 countries using the European Union Labor Force Survey
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and the Current Population Survey 1992-2012. The analysis demonstrates
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
that there is significant heterogeneity in the relationship between
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
institutions and employment across social groups. In line with the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
literature on dualization, institutions that arguably protect labor
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
market insiders, i.e. employment protection, unionization and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
unemployment benefits, are frequently associated with greater inequality
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
between typically disadvantaged groups and their insider peers. By
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
contrast, institutions that discriminate less between insiders and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
outsiders, i.e. active labor market policies, minimum income benefits
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and centralized wage bargaining at times boost social equality on the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
labor market. The insider/outsider argument provides a valuable
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
heuristic for assessing heterogeneity in institutional impacts, yet in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
several instances the results deviate from the expectations.'
