Collective bargaining shapes labor markets, yet we know little about its effects. In our new WP, we track workers shifted to contracts with lower wage floors: wages fall, but employment rises, suggesting adjustments along the firm's labor demand curve.

Today we kick off a PhD reading group at @UCBerkeley on Growth, Technology, and Innovation. Sessions on innovation and automation, property rights, and knowledge in organizations — old classics and new work on AI, side by side, built around gaps where the next papers should be. Here is the reading list for those who are interested.

• 40% of the gap is due to firms' responses to labor supply changes after childbirth & taste-based discrimination • Joint household decision-making & income pooling account for 36% of the gap • More generous or longer parental leave has little impact on the gender pay gap

L’opting out dalla contrattazione collettiva centralizzata: il caso italiano. Interessante studio di @C_Dustmann, @Schoefer_B, @c_giannetto, @l_incoronato, @chiaralac, Vincenzo Pezone, @raffaelesaggio ripreso da @_JacopoSala (@ADAPTpeople), su questo fenomeno anche se il titolo è parzialmente equivoco (per il lettore italiano almeno) rispetto alle casistiche riportate (la contrattazione delle imprese di Federdistribuzione rispetto a quella di Confcommercio che è infatti sviluppata con le medesime federazioni sindacali di settore di Cgil-Cisl-Uil e la contrattazione nazionale in dumping) che nulla hanno a che vedere col decentramento contrattuale (c.d. wage-setting decentralization) e le deroghe al contratto nazionale di settore. Al link che segue la sintesi sul Bollettino ADAPT farecontrattazione.adapt.it/… e qui lo studio integrale pubblicato nella @nberpubs Working Paper Series nber.org/system/files/workin…
