About this research

Theoretical arguments regarding labor market pooling go back to Marshall, but empirical evidence on the topic is scarce. This paper studies how labor market pooling, calculated as regional concentrations of employment in related industries and related occupations, affects the job outcomes of displaced workers. Using matched employer-employee data for displaced workers between 2003-2009 in Sweden, the results show that labor market pooling facilitates the probability that the new job matches the industry- and occupation-specific skills of the displaced workers. The estimations also indicate that working in regions where there is a large pool of related occupations increases the probability of workers getting a higher-skilled job than before the displacement. However, concentrations of related industries lower the chances of workers getting a higher-skilled job than before.
