Changes in self-reported physical and mental health, behaviour and economic status among adults by known seropositivity and sociodemographic factors before and after the Covid-19 pandemic outbreak in …
Introduction: In early March 2020, a SARS-CoV-2 outbreak occurred in the ski resort of Ischgl, in Austria. After an initial seroprevalence study in April 2020, a follow-up study in November 2020 showed persistence of high levels of seropositivity. The impacts of SARS-CoV-2 infections and non-pharmaceutical interventions required to reduce transmission were wide-ranging, including worsened mental and physical health and economic damage. Methods: W…
Health of Parents, Their Children’s Labor Supply, and the Role of Migrant Care Workers
We estimate the impact of parental health on adult children’s labor market outcomes. We focus on health shocks that increase care dependency abruptly. Our estimation strategy exploits the variation in the timing of shocks across treated families. Empirical results based on administrative data show a significant negative impact on the labor market activities of children. This effect is more pronounced for daughters and for children who live close …
Cutting red tape for trade in services
Trade in services is often hampered by domestic administrative barriers, even when countries are members of the same regional trade agreement. We exploit a large reform in the European Union (the EU Service Directive) aimed at reducing such administrative hurdles in cross‐border service provision to estimate its effects on service trade. We employ a triple‐difference strategy and a Poisson pseudo‐maximum‐likelihood panel approach to estimate grav…
Labor market effects of Covid‐19 in Sweden and its neighbors
This paper studies the labor market effects of non‐pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) to combat the COVID‐19 pandemic. We focus on the Nordic countries which showed one of the highest variations in NPIs despite having similar community spread of COVID‐19 at the onset of the pandemic: While Denmark, Finland and Norway imposed strict measures (‘lockdowns’), Sweden decided for much lighter restrictions. Empirically, we use novel administrative data…
EU Co‐Ordination and the Convergence of Domestic Unemployment Protection Schemes
The European Employment Strategy (EES) aims to promote convergence towards higher employment and lower unemployment by soft law instruments. Previous studies in the Europeanization literature on the impact of the EES are mainly focused on active labour market policies. This article explains cross‐national variation in national passive labour market policies. Building on new pooled time‐series data, the empirical findings reveal the presence of a …
The Convergence of Welfare State Indicators in Europe
This paper investigates whether there is a convergence in welfare state programmes among the ‘old’ EU Member States. To identify such trends, the study relies on net pension and net unemployment replacement rates, as well as on public social expenditure data. Empirically, a sample of 14 economies (EU-15 excluding Luxembourg) between 1980 and 2005 is used. The empirical findings reveal the presence of a convergence process, driven by a strong catc…
