Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper examines the micro-determinants of unemployment durations and exits in Czechia, Poland and Austria. Our hazard estimates utilize EU-SILC data and identify national specificities in which individual, household and regional characteristics affect labor market outcomes. This concerns particularly the effects of education on job-finding probability, which are nearly absent in Poland, as opposed to Austria and, even more so, Czechia. However, the key results are common across countries: Unemployed women are less employable than unemployed men, even after controlling for explanatory covariates and the disproportionally high female selection to inactivity. The analogous findings apply to the elderly and those in poor health.
