Abstract

We analyze whether the benefits of work experience that was acquired in denser locations can be explained by the quality of jobs that can be found in agglomerations using administrative data on individual employment biographies of workers in Germany. We find that 79% of the premium for work experience gained in the densest regions can be ascribed to the sectors, tasks and establishments in which experience was acquired. Moreover, we find that foreign and native workers, on average, benefit to a similar extent from dynamic agglomeration effects. However, low-skilled foreign workers receive a lower return to experience gained in dense regions than observationally identical natives. This difference can be explained by the fact that the former gain work experience in lower-quality jobs.

外国人和本国人的动态集聚效应 - 高质量部门、任务和机构的经验作用
我们利用德国工人个人就业简历的行政数据,分析了在密集地区获得的工作经验的益处是否可以通过在聚集区找到的工作的质量来解释。我们发现,在最密集地区获得的工作经验溢价的 79% 可归因于获得经验的部门、任务和机构。此外,我们还发现,平均而言,外国工人和本地工人从动态集聚效应中获益的程度相似。然而,低技能外国工人在密集地区获得的经验回报低于观察相同的本地工人。这种差异可以用前者在低质量工作中获得工作经验这一事实来解释。
