Labour market segmentation and unemployment duration

Ioannis Theodossiou and A. Yannopoulos

Applied Economics Letters, 1998, vol. 5, issue 9, 549-553

Abstract: This paper analyses the factors affecting the duration of an unemployment spell for primary and secondary workers. It evaluates the pattern of hazard rates for exit from unemployment after taking into account the effects of person-specific heterogeneity and shows that workers employed in the lower-tier sector have longer unemployment spells than the remainder.
