Extracting Firm Information from Administrative Records: The ASSD Firm Panel

This paper demonstrates how firm information can be extracted from administrative social security records. We use the Austrian Social Security Database (ASSD) and derive firms from employer identifiers in the universe of private sector workers. To correctly pin down entry end exits we use a worker flow approach which follows clusters of workers as they move across administrative entities. This procedure enables us to define different types of entry and exit such as start-ups, spinoffs, closures, or take-overs. We show that our firm definition results in a demography which is comparable to official statistics of firm registers. The resulting database, covering the period of 1976 to 2006, is a valuable resource for future research on industry evolution in Austria.administrative data, definition of firms, entry and exit types, worker flows

About time: the narrowing gender wage gap in Austria

We examine the gender wage gap in Austria from 2005 to 2017 using data from EU-SILC. The raw gap of hourly wages declined from 18.6 log points in 2005 to 14.9 log points in 2017. We use standard decomposition techniques that correct for differences in the distributions of human capital and other variables between men and women. Decompositions of the wage gap indicate that both the explained and the unexplained part of the gender wage gap decreased substantially over the last ten years. Using the approach developed by Neumark (J Hum Resour 22:279-295, 1988), the unexplained wage gap shrank from 8.7 log points in 2005 to 5.1 log points in 2017. The main reason for the decline in wage differences was the relative improvement of women’s observed and unobserved characteristics

Entwicklung von Verfahren zur Wiederansiedlung gefährdeter Ackerwildpflanzen auf ökologisch bewirtschafteten Äckern

Ökologischer Ackerbau kann zur Erhaltung gefährdeter Ackerwildkräuter beitragen. Im Rahmen des Projekts "Wiederansiedlung seltener und gefährdeter Ackerwildpflanzen naturräumlicher Herkünfte auf Biobetrieben” werden Methoden zur Reetablierung von Ackerwildkräutern auf Feldern geringer Diversität erprobt, die bspw. aufgrund konventioneller Vorbewirtschaftung mit Herbizien floristisch verarmt sind. Verschiedene Übertragungsmethoden (Saatgut, Oberboden) werden erprobt. Vorgestellt werden Versuchsergebnisse zur Etablierung der Arten aus den ersten zwei Versuchsjahren. Beide Übertragungstechniken sind erfolgreich
