Abstract

The (single-spell) identification result of the timing-of-events model by Abbring and Van den Berg (2003b) is extended to a model with several competing exit risk equations. The extended model can be used for example to simultaneously identify the different effects a benefit sanction has on the rate to find work and the rate to leave the labor force. A flexible dependence structure between competing exit risks and the duration until entry into treatment accounts for selection effects caused by unobserved characteristics of the job searcher.
