DIGIROUTINE - Digitalisation and Routine Jobs: Unemployment Experience and Job Search
Sprache der Bezeichnung:
Englisch
Original Kurzfassung:
We will look at aspects of routinisation on the Austrian labor market. This is the first systematic study of the impact of routinisation in Austria, which is probably due to data problems. We can overcome these data problems by combining available anonymous administrative data sets; information from employment registers, the unemployment register -- and, importantly, information from registered job vacancies, which was not available so far. This register information covers the full Austrian labor market.
Our study will first look at unemployment duration of workers in highly routinisable jobs and possibilities the employment office has in terms of retraining, etc. The next paper looks at changes in matching of workers and vacancies due to routinisation by looking at long-term outcomes and changes in the matching process. The third paper is using international data to look at the impact of routinisation on working conditions. This chapter adds a novelty to introduce instrumental variables techniques to determine the threat of
routinisation.
From the project, we expect to provide three academic papers, which will be submitted to international journals.
