Abstract
We use discrete time proportional hazards regressions to model the impact of previous
unemployment incidence and duration on job tenure. We find that jobs that follow an unemployment
spell have shorter mean duration than other jobs. Only one half of jobs that follow unemployment
last for 12 months. Multivariate results suggest that an unemployment spell has a severe penalty on
subsequent job tenure, and that it is unemployment incidence rather than duration which has the
major impact.
