Project presentation December 18, 2026
by Rene Böheim 27 Nov '25

27 Nov '25

Dear colleagues, Earnings volatility and labor market volatility in Austria (OeNB Jubiläumsfond project 18710) Project presentation December 18, 2026, 12.00 - 13.00, K127A Department of Economics Johannes Kepler University Linz René Böheim and David Überall will present key results from their work conducted in the project "Earnings volatility and labor market volatility in Austria", financed by the OeNB. The project's website details the research at: https://www.jku.at/en/department-of-economics/research/research-projects/ea… Using administrative data, they examine volatility trends by gender, age, earnings deciles, and employment interruptions in Austria, 1980--2018. Earnings volatility has increased over this period, with employment interruptions as the main reason, particularly among employees in low-skill sectors and the lower earnings deciles. Through variance decomposition, the greater share of volatility can be attributed to demographic changes, including the impact of migration, sectoral shifts, and the growing labor force participation of women. Joint work with Christine Zulehner (Unversity of Vienna) shows that mothers return to the labor market more quickly after having a child if their own mother was working when they were 10 to 14 years old. Mothers influence their daughters' labour market attachment, particularly during their daughter's parenthood. Further results highlight the role of local factors in addition to parental factors in shaping labour market outcomes. A further evaluation of regional policy changes reducing childcare costs and their effects on parental employment concludes the analyses.

WU Research Seminar in Economics - Maximilian Boeck - December 3, 4.30 pm
by Oberhofer, Harald 25 Nov '25

25 Nov '25

Dear colleagues, The Department of Economics cordially invites you to the WU Research Seminar in Economics on Wednesday, December 3rd, with Maximilian Boeck (https://www.statistik.rw.fau.de/lehrstuhl/mitarbeiter/dr-maximilian-boeck/) presenting: " Plucking the Phillips curve". Abstract: This paper studies the implications of labor market-driven asymmetries on the business cycle. We document that monetary policy generates large real effects in slack markets but more muted responses - except for prices - in tight markets. We develop and estimate, under full information, a nonlinear search-and-matching New Keynesian model with endogenous separations and adjustments along both extensive and intensive employment margins. The model generates plucking-type dynamics, including the positive skewness of unemployment, changes in unemployment, and inflation. The model reproduces the empirical evidence that the transmission of monetary policy shocks varies with labor market tightness through state dependent shifts in the steepness of the Phillips curve - flatter in slack markets and steeper in tight ones. * Date: Wednesday, December 3rd * Time: 4.30 to 6 pm (CET) * Location: building D4, entrance A, ground floor, D4.0.039<https://campus.wu.ac.at/?q=D4.0.039> With best regards, Harald Oberhofer --- Univ.-Prof. Dr. Harald Oberhofer Department of Economics WU Vienna University of Economics and Business Phone: +43/1/31336-4984 Email: harald.oberhofer(a)wu.ac.at<mailto:harald.oberhofer@wu.ac.at> https://www.wu.ac.at/en/economics/people/oberhofer-h Austrian Institute of Economic Research (WIFO) Phone: +43/1/7982601-468 Email: harald.oberhofer(a)wifo.ac.at<mailto:harald.oberhofer@wifo.ac.at> http://www.wifo.ac.at/harald_oberhofer

Economic Theory & Policy Seminar / M. Drechsel-Grau (LMU Munich) / Are Male Bosses Bad for Women’s Careers? Evidence from a Multinational Corporation
by Hutter, Julia 24 Nov '25

24 Nov '25

Dear all, we kindly invite you to our next Economic Theory & Policy seminar talk on Mon, 1st of December 2025 - 4:00 PM - TU Wien, Seminarroom: Zeichensaal 1 (Freihaus building, green area, 8th floor) Moritz Drechsel-Grau (LMU Munich) https://www.moritzdrechselgrau.com/ "Are Male Bosses Bad for Women’s Careers? Evidence from a Multinational Corporation" We study whether gender-based favoritism impedes women’s career progression using data from a European multinational corporation. Leveraging manager reassignments, we show that manager gender does not affect gender differences, neither in wage growth nor in promotion rates. Remarkably, this holds across a wide range of countries and departments, i.e., workforces that differ substantially in terms of gender norms, occupations, and gender composition, but are all subject to the same management practices and corporate culture. Analyzing performance and potential ratings, we find that manager gender only matters in low-stakes decisions that do not affect managers’ own career prospects.

Please register here<https://www.oeaw.ac.at/vid/events/wic-colloquium/wic-colloquium-registration>. Future Births: A Formal Perspective on Humanity’s Yet-to-Be-Born Generations Miguel Sanchez Romero, Technical University of Vienna Tomas Sobotka Vienna Institute of Demography Abstract: The global fall in fertility led to concerns about the prospects of population decline, with many discussions suggesting this trend presents a grave threat to humanity. Using UN WPP data we model future births over a very long-term period. We compute the total number and the relative fraction of births to be born in the future. We also consider different age at childbearing and compute the year when the global number of births would fall below one thousand. Our study provides three key insights. First, indefinite scenarios of low fertility imply that most people who would ever live on Earth had already been born. Second, the mean age at childbearing strongly impacts population dynamics: longer inter-generational span slows down the pace of births and population decline. Third, even when assuming a permanent continuation of very low fertility humanity's final demise would occur very slowly, over the course of several thousand years. About the presenters: Miguel Sánchez-Romero is a senior researcher at the Technical University of Vienna and IIASA, and a guest researcher at the Vienna Institute of Demography at the Austrian Academy of Sciences. He is editor of the Vienna Yearbook of Population Research and an associate editor of the Journal of the Economics of Ageing and the Journal of Population Research. His work examines how demographic change and intergenerational transfers influence health, labour, human capital, climate change, and economic growth. His expertise spans formal demography, life-cycle models, and overlapping-generations frameworks. Tomas Sobotka leads the research group on Fertility and Population Change and serves as deputy director of the Vienna Institute of Demography of the Austrian Academy of Sciences. He is Editor-in-Chief of the Vienna Yearbook of Population Research and lectures at the Charles University in Prague (Czechia) and at the University of Vienna. His research focuses on global low fertility, fertility data and measurement, population and family changes in Europe, and assisted reproduction. Tomas Sobotka has helped launching and expanding several data repositories, including the Human Fertility Database (HFD, www.humanfertility.org<http://www.humanfertility.org> ). ********************************************************************************** PLEASE SEE https://www.oeaw.ac.at/vid/events/wic-colloquium FOR OUR UPCOMING AND PREVIOUS COLLOQUIA **********************************************************************************

IHS Project Presentation: Labour Market Dualisation and Social Policy Preferences in Austria
by IHS Event 19 Nov '25

19 Nov '25

[https://7i0di.img.a.d.sendibm1.com/im/sh/MF8m6EZpJPDO.png?u=1vcqsYC5HMzcSL9…] IHS Project Presentation Labour Market Dualisation and Social Policy Preferences in Austria December 2, 2025 3:00 pm to 4:30 pm Institute for Advanced Studies Josefstädter Straße 39, 1080 Vienna Salon Abstract Over the past 15 years, international research has increasingly examined the relationship between group-specific labor market vulnerabilities and attitudes toward social policy. As part of a research project co-funded by the Anniversary Fund of the Austrian National Bank, Marcel Fink, Peter Grand, Guido Tiemann, and Gerlinde Titelbach analyze this relationship for Austria and present selected findings. Their analysis of the development labor market risks across occupational social classes shows that, despite cyclical fluctuations, strong structural patterns have persisted over the last 15 years. Second, group-specific labor market vulnerabilities have become an increasingly important predictor of attitudes toward social policy. However, this applies mainly to "general" social risks and measures-such as overall redistribution, aging, and health-and less to group-specific risks and policies, such as unemployment or access to social benefits for migrants. Speaker Marcel Fink, Gerlinde Titelbach, and Guido Tiemann are Senior Researchers in the IHS research group Social Cohesion and Polarization, while Peter Grand is a Senior Researcher in the Competence Center Survey Research. They are presenting a project co-funded by the Austrian National Bank Anniversary Fund.
