Shiftwork
分析制造业中轮班工作的组织方式，探讨其在商业周期中的顺周期性如何解释劳动生产率之谜，并考察长期中轮班工作增加的原因及其与收入水平的跨国正相关。
We analyze the organization of employment in nonsimultaneous shifts, considering the shift composition of manufacturing employment, both in the business cycle frequency and in the long run. With regard to the short run, we argue that shiftwork would be procyclical and that this, combined with the inherent lumpiness of shifts, may help resolve the puzzle of the procyclicality of labor productivity. With regard to the long run, we identify channels that may account for the increase in shiftwork in the past half-century and for the nonnegative cross-country correlation between shiftwork and the level of income.
