Duration and mobility of young male workers in a segmented labour market

Abstract

This study analyses the notion that the length of spells in secondary segment employment inhibits mobility to primary segment employment. Findings for young male workers aged 20-25 detect the existence of such an effect with secondary segment hazard rates exhibiting negative duration dependence after three years of duration.
