Abstract
ABSTRACT This study analyzes the roles of heterogeneous worker flows in Japan’s labour market. I divide workers into regular, non-regular, and self-employed and other workers and examine the effects of these different types of worker flows on Japan’s labour stocks. I find that the fluctuations in the job separation rate for non-regular workers and the participation margin are relatively important for the evolution of Japan’s unemployment rate. Further, the transitions between regular and non-regular jobs play a major role in the dynamics of Japan’s non-regular worker ratio.
