The causes and consequences of long-term unemployment – Andreas I. Mueller (Inaugural lecture)

Andreas I. Mueller's research focuses on macroeconomics and labor markets with a special interest in Business Cycles, Unemployment, Unemployment Insurance, Job Search, Time Use, and Monetary Policy Research. His research includes studying the effects of unemployment insurance, job search efforts, and the implications of policy changes on employment and wages. By combining theoretical models with empirical data, Mueller aims to provide insights that can inform both academic understanding and practical policymaking in the labor market sphere. Tackling the issue of long-term unemployment is a long-standing challenge for labor market policy. Prolonged periods of joblessness are associated with worse economic outcomes, including lower job-finding rates, reduced re-employment wages, and less stable jobs. These challenges become even more pressing during economic downturns, when the incidence of long-term unemployment rises sharply. Despite the policy relevance of this issue, its underlying causes remain poorly understood. Andreas I. Mueller argues that the long-term unemployed are fundamentally distinct in their job search behavior and employment prospects. His research evaluates the potential for labor market policies to better target those most at risk of prolonged unemployment. https://www.ubscenter.uzh.ch/en/news_...
