DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Spillover Effects of Mass Layoffs</
 strong> (with Christina Gathmann and Ines Helm)</p><p style="text-align: ju
 stify;">Abstract:<br /> Using administrative data covering all German firms
  and workers, we quantify the spillover effects of mass layoffs. Our empiri
 cal strategy combines matching with an event study approach to trace employ
 ment and wages in regions hit by a mass layoff relative to suitable control
  regions. We find sizable and persistent negative spillover effects on the 
 regional economy: regions, and especially firms producing in the same broad
  industry as the layoff plant, lose many more jobs than in the initial layo
 ff. In contrast, negative employment effects on workers employed in the reg
 ion at the time of the mass layoff are considerably smaller.</p>
