- Abstract: In this paper, we study different determinants of the intentions of multi‐dimensional job mobility and potential consequences on the expected wage, allowing for multiple types of moves, including location, industry, and occupation, and different combinations of these three dimensions. Our results confirm that the same observable characteristics can lead to different or even completely opposite effects on job mobility intentions. To be specific, on‐the‐job seekers (compared to unemployed ones) and job seekers with management positions in their last jobs both have a higher willingness to change job locations, but they are less willing to change industries and occupations. Moreover, our results demonstrate that the relationship between job mobility and wage expectations highly depends on the combinations of different mobility dimensions. Specifically, potential geographic mobility positively impacts wage expectations, with an increase of the expected wage by 6.3%. However, changing industry, occupation, or both results in a lower expected wage by 3.7%, 1.6%, and 11%, respectively. The wage expectation of the "All change" group does not significantly differ from the cohort of non‐movers (i.e., "No change"), implying that geographic moves could only partially offset the adverse effects of switching both occupation and industry.

Resumen: En este artículo se estudian diferentes determinantes de las intenciones de movilidad laboral multidimensional y las posibles consecuencias sobre el salario esperado, teniendo en cuenta los múltiples tipos de movimientos, como la ubicación, el sector laboral y la ocupación, y las diferentes combinaciones de estas tres dimensiones. Los resultados confirman que las mismas características observables pueden llevar a efectos diferentes, o incluso completamente opuestos, en las intenciones de movilidad laboral. En concreto, quienes buscan cambiar de empleo (en comparación con los desempleados) y quienes buscan empleo con puestos de gerencia en sus últimos trabajos tienen una mayor predisposición a cambiar de lugar de trabajo, pero están menos dispuestos a cambiar de sector y de ocupación. Además, los resultados demuestran que la relación entre la movilidad laboral y las expectativas salariales depende en gran medida de las combinaciones de las diferentes dimensiones de la movilidad. En concreto, la movilidad geográfica potencial influye positivamente en las expectativas salariales, con un aumento del salario esperado del 6, 3%. Sin embargo, el cambio de sector, de ocupación o de ambos da lugar a un salario esperado inferior de un 3, 7%, 1, 6% y 11%, respectivamente. Las expectativas salariales del grupo de "cambios en todas las dimensiones" no difieren significativamente de las de la cohorte de los que no se mueven (es decir, "No cambio"), lo que implica que los movimientos geográficos sólo podrían compensar parcialmente los efectos adversos de cambiar tanto de ocupación como de sector. 抄録: 本稿では、勤務地、業種、及び職種を含む複数のタイプの移動とこれらの3つの様々な組み合わせを考慮して、多次元的な職業移動 (job mobility)及び期待賃金に対する潜在的帰結の様々な意思決定要因を検討する。結果から、観察可能な同じ特性が、職業移動の意思に対して、異なる、あるいは完全に逆の効果をもたらし得ることが確認される。つまり、有職者で求職中の人 (無職者と比較して)と、前職が管理職であった求職者のいずれもが、勤務地を変える意欲は高いが、業種や職種を変える意欲は低い。結果からはさらに、職業移動と期待賃金の関係が、移動の異なる側面の組み合わせに大きく依存することが実証される。具体的には、地理的に移動した場合は期待賃金額が6.3%上昇するというプラスの影響が予想される。しかし、業種と職種のいずれか、またはその両方を変えると、期待賃金額はそれぞれ3.7%、1.6%、11%低下する。勤務地、業種、及び職種すべてを変えるグループの賃金期待値と、いずれも変えないコホートとでは有意差はなく、地理的な移動は、職種と業種の両方を変えることの悪影響を部分的に相殺するだけであることが示唆される。 … (more)
