  1. Significant at the **0.5 and ***0.01 level
  2. Discrete time survival model, logit form, following (Jenkins 1995). Estimated for the pool of 28 quarterly waves of the Labor Force Survey in 2003–2009. The estimation excludes the crisis period (2010 and 2011). Sample: employees. Dependent variable: 1 if the person was ILO-OECD unemployed in wave t + 1 and 0 otherwise. The coefficients of 19 county dummies and 27 survey wave dummies are not shown
