Description To work on the project “Ageing workers in the Austrian labour market - Linked Employer-employee Data Analysis (LEDA)” (a collaborative project with the Vienna Institute of Demography of the Austrian Academy of Sciences) for two years.
Facing an ageing and shrinking workforce it is key to understand the productivity of older workers and to identify firm characteristics that allow older workers productivity not to decline, in particular so in times of accelerated digitalization and automation. Within LEDA we analyze the relationship between the age structure of the workforce and labor productivity/wages at the firm level in Austria drawing on a panel data set from 2009 to 2021 that will be built up within the Austrian Micro Data Center (AMDC).
We offer a monthly gross salary of € 2.698,10 (30h per week, 14x times per year).
