• Employment Effects of the New German Minimum Wage: Evidence from Establishment-Level Microdata (2019, background): “Moreover, Neumark, Schweitzer, and Wascher (2004), as well as Couch and Wittenburg (2001), found a negative hours adjustment from the US state-level data.”
• Minimum Wage Effects in a Developing Country (2009, background): “This identification strategy might work for low inflation periods where spillovers do not extend as high into the distribution (Neumark et al., 2004) and where concerns regarding the endogeneity of the minimum wage are not paramount.”
• The Impact of Minimum Wages on Labour Market Transitions (2013, background): “…effect is identified by comparing employment changes for the directly affected workers with those for workers in other jurisdictions and at other points in the wage distribution (Currie and Fallick (1996) and Neumark et al. (2004) for the US; Yuen (2003) and Campolieti et al. (2005) for Canada).”
