Abstract

Auf der Grundlage des Sozio-oekonomischen Panels (SOEP) wird die Austrittsmobilität auf dem ostdeutschen Arbeitsmarkt in den 1990er Jahren analysiert. Nach sehr starken Anfangsturbulenzen 1990/91 gingen die Austrittsraten etwas zurück, verblieben aber im Vergleich zu Westdeutschland auf hohem Niveau. Zu verzeichnen ist ein sehr niedriger Anteil freiwilliger Beendigungen von Beschäftigungsverhältnissen, was ein deutlicher Hinweis auf die schlechten Beschäftigungschancen in Ostdeutschland ist. Austritte, die sich auf arbeitsmarktpolitische Maßnahmen zurückführen lassen (ABM/SAM, Vorruhestand) haben hingegen eine erhebliche Bedeutung. Im Unterschied zu den alten Bundesländern war in Ostdeutschland kein konjunkturabhängiges Austrittsmuster zu verzeichnen. Den hohen Austrittsraten stehen keine entsprechenden Eintrittsraten gegenüber. Damit weist der ostdeutsche Arbeitsmarkt auch 13 Jahre nach der Wiedervereinigung eklatante Unterschiede zum westdeutschen Arbeitsmarkt auf, die sich nicht nur in durchschnittlich höheren Arbeitslosenraten, sondern auch in der fundamental anderen Funktionsweise zeigen.
