The Unexpected Side Effects of Lockdowns on Those Barely Inside and Outside of Lockdown Areas
This study implements a geographical regression discontinuity design to estimate the impact of Japan's anti‐COVID‐19 policy, which imposed what is called “a state of emergency” (SOE). This policy can be considered a ‘mild lockdown’ without any geographical restriction. In January 2021, an SOE was declared in 11 out of Japan's 47 prefectures. We utilised the fact that the risk of infection and other factors were geographically continuous across th…
Endogenous decisions on acceptable worker-job mismatch level and the impact on workers’ performance
Employment Adjustments of Regular and Non-Regular Workers to Exogenous Shocks
The authors investigate the adjustments in employment of regular and non-regular workers, exploiting the exchange-rate fluctuation and heterogeneous dependence on international trade across firms as a source of exogenous variation. An analysis of panel data of Japanese manufacturers reveals that the appreciation of the Japanese yen spontaneously decreased the sales of exporters and the employment of non-regular workers, but it did not reduce the …

Japan's traditional long-term employment practice, loosely termed "lifetime employment," once attracted much attention, but its fortunes have not been tracked since the 1990s. The authors use micro data from the Japanese government's Basic Survey on Wage Structure to estimate permanent full-time workers' tenure patterns in the years during and following Japan's decade-long recession. Mean tenure, they find, grew for both genders between 1990 and …
