Urban labour market resilience during the Covid-19 pandemic: what is the promise of teleworking?
研究了美国城市在2020年新冠疫情期间，远程办公岗位比例如何影响劳动力市场的就业和需求韧性，发现远程办公比例越高，城市韧性越强，尤其在小城市中效果更显著。
The emergence of the Covid-19 pandemic caused immense labour market turbulences and a large-scale turn towards teleworking. This paper contributes to the understanding of how teleworking shapes regional economic outcomes by focusing on labour market resilience in US cities during the 2020 Covid-19 emergency. It examines employment and labour demand and finds that the share of teleworkable jobs is linked to stronger employment resilience, and enhances labour demand resilience during the onset of the pandemic and in smaller cities. The paper discusses possible mechanisms and policies that can help leverage the promise of teleworking for resilient labour markets.
