Labor market surveys: employee mobility, wage factors, and wage inequalities

It is possible to use detailed large-scale data at the individual level as well as the aggregate data of companies and employees for various applied research. Examples of earlier studies include: different studies on factors influencing the gender pay gap in Estonia; studies of changes in the occupational and age structure of the workforce; studies on the impact of the economic crisis on the Estonian labor market. Examples from previous studies:

EU H2020 project “InWeGe – Income, wealth, and gender. A study and practical web tool for understanding gender pay and pension gaps in Estonia – the country with the biggest gender pay gap in the EU.“- See more information here.
