| Abstract: | The determinants of time without work following job displacement is modelled for a large sample of workers laid off because of plant shout-downs. The role of advance notification in mitigating unemployment is analyzed. Advance notification is found to have significantly reduced duration of unemployment of those notified workers who did not draw unemployment insurance benefits and of those who left the plant prior to termination. Advance notice had much less effect on the time without work of notified workers whose spell length of unemployment was long enough for them to collect unemployment benefits. |
