Occupational Specificity of Human Capital
Kambourov and Manovskii want to estimate something like thereturns to tenure specification, but allow for occupation andindustry specific human capital
![Page 4: Other Models of Labor Dynamicsssc.wisc.edu/~ctaber/751/KMNP.pdf · Other Models of Labor Dynamics Christopher Taber Department of Economics University of Wisconsin-Madison March 2,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042411/5f292f0909162d50887719ce/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
They use the model
log(wijmnt) = β0Emp_Tenijt + β1OJijt + β2Occ_Tenimt + β3Ind_Tenint
+Work_Expit + θit
where
Emp_Tenijt Tenure at the employerOJijt Dummy for first year on the jobOcc_Tenimt Tenure in the current occupationInd_Tenint Tenure in the Current IndustryWork_Expit Total Work Experience

Data
One hard part of this is that they need to get good data onoccupation which is often measured poorly
They use the PSID
They make use of the “PSID Retrospective Occupation-IndustrySupplemental Data Files” which retrospectively get bettermeasures of occupations for the period 1968-1980
They are going to make a distinction between 1, 2 and 3 digitoccupations and industries.
Lets see what that means
![Page 6: Other Models of Labor Dynamicsssc.wisc.edu/~ctaber/751/KMNP.pdf · Other Models of Labor Dynamics Christopher Taber Department of Economics University of Wisconsin-Madison March 2,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042411/5f292f0909162d50887719ce/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

![Page 8: Other Models of Labor Dynamicsssc.wisc.edu/~ctaber/751/KMNP.pdf · Other Models of Labor Dynamics Christopher Taber Department of Economics University of Wisconsin-Madison March 2,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042411/5f292f0909162d50887719ce/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The error term in the model is quite complicated with
θit = µi + λij + ξim + vin + εit
where µi is individual effect, λij is job match, ξim is occupationmatch, and vin is industry match (and as usual εit is noise)
This probably means about everything is biased upward
![Page 9: Other Models of Labor Dynamicsssc.wisc.edu/~ctaber/751/KMNP.pdf · Other Models of Labor Dynamics Christopher Taber Department of Economics University of Wisconsin-Madison March 2,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042411/5f292f0909162d50887719ce/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
They will deal with this using the Altonji/Shakotko approach
That is, they will use
Emp_Tenijt − Emp_Tenij as an instrument for Emp_Tenijt
Occ_Tenijt − Occ_Tenij as an instrument for Occ_Tenijt
Ind_Tenijt − Ind_Tenij as an instrument for Ind_Tenijt

They do a lot of other robustness checks
Basic results seem robust:
Occupational specific tenure is really importantFirm specific tenure is not importantIndustry specific tenure is somewhere in between

Neal 1999
Neeal distinguishes between “complex” job switches in whichworkers switch careers from simple job shifts in which workersswitch firms but do not switch careers
He adds uncertainty into our framework: when workers try anew job they don’t know whether they will be good at it or not
He develops a simple model of this and shows that the data isconsistent with the basic predictions of the model: workers firstshop for a career and then shop for a firm within the career
![Page 15: Other Models of Labor Dynamicsssc.wisc.edu/~ctaber/751/KMNP.pdf · Other Models of Labor Dynamics Christopher Taber Department of Economics University of Wisconsin-Madison March 2,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042411/5f292f0909162d50887719ce/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The key components of the model are:
Career match θ distributed F(θ)
Job match ξ distributed G(ξ)
The key restriction of the model is that
to switch careers, you must switch firms, butto switch firms, you do not have to switch careers
He is abstracts from all but the most necessarycomponents-clearly one could make this model morecomplicated if you want.
![Page 16: Other Models of Labor Dynamicsssc.wisc.edu/~ctaber/751/KMNP.pdf · Other Models of Labor Dynamics Christopher Taber Department of Economics University of Wisconsin-Madison March 2,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042411/5f292f0909162d50887719ce/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Assuming that people are paid θ + ξ and that there are nosearch costs in the sense that you can always find a new job ofthe type you want-but you don’t observe the match componentuntil you start working there
You can write the Belman equation as
V (θ, ξ) = θ + ξ + βmax{
V (θ, ξ) ,
∫V(θ, s)dG(s),∫ ∫
V(x, s)dF(x)dG(s)}
where V is the value function and β is the discount factor.
![Page 17: Other Models of Labor Dynamicsssc.wisc.edu/~ctaber/751/KMNP.pdf · Other Models of Labor Dynamics Christopher Taber Department of Economics University of Wisconsin-Madison March 2,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042411/5f292f0909162d50887719ce/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
You can think of it in terms of the following figure
Job Mobility among Young Men 241
where V (0, A) is the value of having current matches (0, A) and f is a
discount factor. Equation (1) illustrates that, at the beginning of the next
period, the worker has three options: (i) keep both 0 and 4, (ii) keep her
career match 0 and draw a new firm match, or (iii) draw a new career
match and a new firm match.
Appendix A demonstrates that the worker's optimal policy can be
characterized by figure 1. The variables 0 - and 4* serve as quasi-reserva-
tion values for each type of match, and based on these values, the figure
is divided into three regions. Workers holding a pair (0, 4) that lies in
region A choose to draw a new pair at the beginning of the next period.
Workers holding (0, A) in region B keep their current career match 0 but
draw a new firm match at the beginning of the next period. Workers who
hold (0, 4) in region C cease searching.
Stop
C
Change 0 and 4
A Change 4
B
FIG. 1
Given this search strategy, workers never change careers after changing
firms within a given career. In this model, workers who make simple firm
![Page 18: Other Models of Labor Dynamicsssc.wisc.edu/~ctaber/751/KMNP.pdf · Other Models of Labor Dynamics Christopher Taber Department of Economics University of Wisconsin-Madison March 2,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042411/5f292f0909162d50887719ce/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Note that once you get to region B, you will never go back to A
Once you get to C, you will stay
This has the implication that as workers age, the fraction of jobchanges that are complex should fall
Note also that if we condition on people who have never madea simple job change, the probability that the next job changewill be simple does not depend on age
Neal looks for these implications in the data
![Page 19: Other Models of Labor Dynamicsssc.wisc.edu/~ctaber/751/KMNP.pdf · Other Models of Labor Dynamics Christopher Taber Department of Economics University of Wisconsin-Madison March 2,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042411/5f292f0909162d50887719ce/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Data
He uses the NLSY79 which is great for constructing data on jobchanges and how they vary with occupation and industry
He looks at Males only
The question here is what represents a career
Neal assumes that a complex job change represents both anoccupation change and an industry change
Lets look at the first piece of evidence.
Each observations is a sequence of job changes.
He groups by the total number of job changes and documentsthe fraction consistent with the pure model (i.e. no complexchanges following simple changes)
![Page 20: Other Models of Labor Dynamicsssc.wisc.edu/~ctaber/751/KMNP.pdf · Other Models of Labor Dynamics Christopher Taber Department of Economics University of Wisconsin-Madison March 2,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042411/5f292f0909162d50887719ce/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
![Page 21: Other Models of Labor Dynamicsssc.wisc.edu/~ctaber/751/KMNP.pdf · Other Models of Labor Dynamics Christopher Taber Department of Economics University of Wisconsin-Madison March 2,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042411/5f292f0909162d50887719ce/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
You can see that the results are not precisely the two stagemodel, but they are much closer than you would expect bychance
Next an observation is a single job change
He groups by the number of simple changes since working inthe current career (and by education)
![Page 22: Other Models of Labor Dynamicsssc.wisc.edu/~ctaber/751/KMNP.pdf · Other Models of Labor Dynamics Christopher Taber Department of Economics University of Wisconsin-Madison March 2,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042411/5f292f0909162d50887719ce/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
![Page 23: Other Models of Labor Dynamicsssc.wisc.edu/~ctaber/751/KMNP.pdf · Other Models of Labor Dynamics Christopher Taber Department of Economics University of Wisconsin-Madison March 2,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042411/5f292f0909162d50887719ce/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Key thing is that (for example) for high school graduates forwhom this is there first firm in the career, the chances that thenext switch is complex is 69%
However, for those who underwent a previous job switch in thiscareer, it is only 22%
The next tables are similar, but we group by experience
![Page 24: Other Models of Labor Dynamicsssc.wisc.edu/~ctaber/751/KMNP.pdf · Other Models of Labor Dynamics Christopher Taber Department of Economics University of Wisconsin-Madison March 2,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042411/5f292f0909162d50887719ce/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

One concern is that this could be about career specific humancapital rather than about search.
Neal addresses this with the following Table
![Page 27: Other Models of Labor Dynamicsssc.wisc.edu/~ctaber/751/KMNP.pdf · Other Models of Labor Dynamics Christopher Taber Department of Economics University of Wisconsin-Madison March 2,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042411/5f292f0909162d50887719ce/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

While the strict version of the model is not precisely true, thedata is broadly consistent with the idea.

Career Choice and Wage Growth
Pavan implements a structural extension of Neal’s model
Like Neal he uses a similar definition of Career change.
![Page 31: Other Models of Labor Dynamicsssc.wisc.edu/~ctaber/751/KMNP.pdf · Other Models of Labor Dynamics Christopher Taber Department of Economics University of Wisconsin-Madison March 2,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042411/5f292f0909162d50887719ce/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Data
He also uses the NLSY79
Individuals born between 1957 and 1964Representative males (with some restrictions to simplifysample)Different definitions of career
(3 digit) occupation and industry change (t − 1, t) to(t + 1, t + 2)occupation and industry change t to t + 1occupation t to t + 1industry t to t + 1

He then does something similar to what Komogorov andManovskii do, but for career
(using his four definitions of career)

Structural Model
he : general human capitalθc : career specific human capitalεt : firm specific human capital
All three variables are initially drawn from a normal
h1 ∼N(µh1,σ2h)
θ1 ∼N(0, σ2θ)
ε1 ∼N(0, σ2ε)
as in Neal, you draw a new θ when you switch career and anew ε when you switch firms
Don’t get to see those variables unless you actually move
![Page 37: Other Models of Labor Dynamicsssc.wisc.edu/~ctaber/751/KMNP.pdf · Other Models of Labor Dynamics Christopher Taber Department of Economics University of Wisconsin-Madison March 2,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042411/5f292f0909162d50887719ce/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
These things evolve
he =h(e, h1)
θc =µθ + α1 (h1 − µh1) + θc−1 + uθc
µθc ∼N(0, η2θ)
εt =µε + α2 (h1 − µh1) + εt−1 + uεt
µεt ∼N(0, η2ε)
Wages are
log(wect) =δ′Xe + he + θc + εt

Estimation
Pavan solves this model by Maximum Likelihood
(Much much easier said than done, see his paper for details)
![Page 43: Other Models of Labor Dynamicsssc.wisc.edu/~ctaber/751/KMNP.pdf · Other Models of Labor Dynamics Christopher Taber Department of Economics University of Wisconsin-Madison March 2,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042411/5f292f0909162d50887719ce/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)

Wage Decompositions
The model is complicated
To understand it better Pavan does three different wage growthdecompositions
Remember that we can write
log(wect) =δ′Xe + he + θc + εt
![Page 45: Other Models of Labor Dynamicsssc.wisc.edu/~ctaber/751/KMNP.pdf · Other Models of Labor Dynamics Christopher Taber Department of Economics University of Wisconsin-Madison March 2,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042411/5f292f0909162d50887719ce/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
The X′s he uses don’t change over time so
log(we+1c′t′)− log(wect)
=he+1 − he + θc′ − θc + εt′ − εt
=he+1 − he + (θc′ − θc) 1(c′ = c + 1
)+ (θc′ − θc) 1
(c′ = 1
)+
+ (εt′ − εt) 1(t′ = t + 1) + (εt′ − εt) 1(t′ = 1)
=he+1 − he + (µθ + α1(h1 − µh1) + uθc) 1(c′ = c + 1
