Frictions in the Labor Market in Real Cycle Models
Labor Market, Frictions, Search Markets, Diamond-Mortensen-Pissarides Model, RBC Model.
Frictions in the labor market arise from the time and costs associated with job searching and worker recruitment, generating inefficiencies in the matching process between firms and candidates. Incorporating these frictions into RBC (Real Business Cycle) models using the Diamond-Mortensen Pissarides search and matching framework is fundamental for capturing more realistic dynamics, something that is particularly important for countries like Brazil. By endogenizing job finding and separation rates, these improved models allow for a more accurate analysis of the effects of economic shocks, offering more robust subsidies for the formulation of public policies in line with the characteristics of the labour market.
