Commuting Time as a Measure of Employment Costs

S. Senesky

Working Papers from California Irvine - School of Social Sciences

Abstract: Although the neoclassical labor economics literature assumes that hours of work are determined solely on the supply side as a result of individual demand for leisure, and abundance of evidence points to the importance of employer demand factors in the market for hours of work. Despite the appeal of models allowing for simultaneity in the market four hours, the scarcity of appropriate data has made their estimation difficult.
