The Implications of Changes in Hours Fluctuations on Welfare Costs of Business Cycles

Yang, Hee-Seung / Shim, Myungkyu

Abstract

Hours volatility has changed non-monotonically across skill groups since the mid-1980s. The welfare cost of business cycles of mid-skilled workers became similar to that of high-skilled workers, while the relative welfare cost of low- to high-skilled workers remains very high.
