The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

This paper considers a search-theoretic model of a labour market with on-the-job search, where firms post starting wages and choose whether to ignore or match outside offers. An offer matching equilibrium with wage dispersion is more likely when productivity is high. Multiple equilibria with different wage dispersion and outside offers policies are also possible.
