Abstract

"In concentrated labor markets, firms command high market shares when recruiting workers and, thus, may have a dominant market position. International studies show that higher labor market concentration leads to lower wages and worse employment conditions for workers. Using social security data, the authors examine and document the extent of concentration in occupationally and regionally defined labor markets in Germany." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))
