12th Joint ECB/CEPR Labour Market Workshop on “Wage developments in the aftermath of the crisis”
December 13-14, 2016
European Central Bank, Frankfurt am Main
Deadline is Friday, 9 September
About the conference
The 12th Joint ECB/CEPR Labour Market Workshop focuses on how the crisis has affected wage dynamics, how wage adjustments have varied with underlying structural differences, and how the wage dynamics have shaped macroeconomic outcomes. It aims to draw lessons from past wage developments for the challenges lying ahead.
Research topics of particular relevance to the conference include:
Determinants of recent wage developments (for example, sectoral differences, productivity, slack, low inflation environment, zero lower bound)
Modelling wage dynamics
Effects of structural reforms on wage determination mechanisms during and after the crisis
Analyses of changes to the wage Phillips curve
Wages in a monetary union with segmented labour markets
Macroeconomic effects of (changes in) minimum wages
Relative strength of adjustment of wages, hours, and employment to shocks
Effects of migration on wages
Mismatch and wage dynamics
Wage structure: within the firm and at the top of the wage distribution
