We develop a method for decomposing firm performance to impacts coming from the inflows and outflows of workers and apply it to study whether older workers are costly to firms. Our estimation equations are derived from a variant of the decomposition methods frequently used for measuring micro-level sources of industry productivity growth. By using comprehensive linked employer–employee data, we study the productivity and wage effects, and hence the profitability effects, of the hiring and separation of younger and older workers. The evidence shows that the separations of older workers are profitable to firms, especially in the manufacturing ICT-industries. To account for the correlation of the worker flows and productivity shocks we first estimate the shocks from a production function using materials as a proxy variable. In the second step the estimated shock is used as a control variable in our productivity, wage, and profitability equations.

Seniority rules, worker mobility and wages : evidence from multi-country linked employer-employee data
Böckerman, Petri; Skedinger, Per; Uusitalo, Roope (Elsevier, 2018)We construct multi-country employer-employee data to examine the consequences of last-in, first-out rules. We identify the effects by comparing worker exit rates between different units of the same firms operating in Sweden ... -
The roles of job and worker restructuring in aggregate wage growth dynamics
Kauhanen, Antti; Maliranta, Mika (Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2019)We propose an approach for measuring and analyzing the dynamics of the standard aggregate wage growth of macro statistics with micro data. Our method decomposes the aggregate wage growth into the wage growth of job stayers ... -
Personal use of technology at work : a literature review and a theoretical model for understanding how it affects employee job performance
Jiang, Heming; Siponen, Mikko; Tsohou, Aggeliki (Taylor & Francis, 2023)Employee personal use of technology at work (PUTW)—defined as employees’ activities using organisational or personal IT resources for non-work-related purposes while at work—is increasingly common in organisations. Our ... -
Firm growth and profitability : The role of age and size in shifts between growth–profitability configurations
Mansikkamäki, Susanna (Elsevier, 2023)To investigate the routes toward profitable growth, this study partially replicates and extends the work of Davidsson et al. (2009) on firm growth–profitability dynamics with multi-industry data on over 66,000 Finnish ... -
The costs of job loss and task usage : Do social tasks soften the drop?
Kauhanen, Antti; Riukula, Krista (Springer, 2024)Do different tasks shield differently from the scarring effects of job loss? This study examines how the effects of job loss depend on task usage. We use Finnish linked employer–employee data from 2001 to 2016, representative ...
