Abstract

Les travailleurs bénéficient de performances différentes sur le marché du travail en fonction de leur âge : le taux d'emploi exhibe une trajectoire en cloche en fonction de l'âge, tandis que le taux de chômage est continuellement décroissant. Au cours des dernières décennies, le taux de chômage a augmenté pour toutes les catégories d'âge, mais essentiellement pour les plus jeunes, tandis que les taux d'emploi et de participation ont essentiellement diminué pour les plus jeunes et les plus âgés. Nous construisons dans cet article un modèle d'appariement à la Pissarides (1990) apte à rendre compte de ces phénomènes.
