Tiivistelmä: | The authors study a possible link between two recent U.S. labor market trends: increased wrongful termination litigation and more frequent mass layoffs. They argue that if workers are more likely to sue when fired than when dismissed as part of a layoff, then increases in the expected costs to firms of such suits should induce substitution toward layoffs and away from individual firings. |
