La movilidad geográfica laboral interior: Un mecanismo para combatir el desempleo

Abstract

The economic crisis of 2007 had devastating effects on employment in most developed countries. However, the intensity of these effects and their persistence were not the same in all of them. The lack of geographical mobility of the labor force is one of the factors that could explain these differences. In this paper, we investigate this mechanism of adjustment of the labor market using for this a competing-risk model. The results obtained are interesting, as they may be questioning the future validity of this adjustment mechanism in line with the OECD.
