My topic is about the migrant workers who has experienced job displacement because of COVID19 pandemic. The labor policy shall recommend a policy for migrant workers.
“The labor policy paper should make use of the theories and models discussed in class (e.g. labor supply-demand, human capital, basic job search model, etc.). The expectation is that the analysis would be mainly qualitative with conclusions like “policy proposal X or event Y is likely to temporarily raise unemployment” rather than “proposal X or event Y is likely to increase unemployment by Z% for the next 4 quarters.” While no original empirical analysis is necessary, students are encouraged to make use of data (use tables, figures, and simple statistical measures) to support the conclusion and policy recommendation.”
