Failing Young
and Temporary Workers: The Impact of Covid-19 on a Dual
Labor Market
"
In this paper, we use
administrative data from a Eurozone country characterized by
a sharp pandemic crisis, a segmented labor market, and a
generous coverage of furlough schemes to obtain causal
estimates of the impact of the pandemic crisis on jobless
claims, on job placements and on the reasons that motivated
the jobless claim, during the first six months of the
pandemic, i.e., between March and August 2020, and to
uncover the uneven impacts of the crisis in the workforce.
Covering the universe of individuals formally registered as
unemployed in 278 Portuguese municipalities, we employ event
study difference-in-differences and document a large causal
impact on jobless claims: the year-on-year growth rates
increase by 39 and 38 percentage points in June and July,
respectively. New job placements drop significantly,
especially in April. We also use triple
difference-in-differences to show that individuals up to 34
years old and with secondary education fell more into
unemployment. Female labor market prospects are worsened by
the pandemic, with an additional 17.5% drop in new job
placements of women compared to men. The heterogeneous
effects on unemployment were accentuated in municipalities
with a higher share of temporary workers.
