Abstract

This paper investigates the effect of measurement error on the measurement
of temporary employment as well as the transition rates in and out of temporary employment
over time in Italy and the Netherlands.We conduct a comparative analysis
of Italian and Dutch employment data spanning from 2017 to 2019, linking information
from the Labour Force Survey and the Employment Register. For this purpose,
we use a multiple-group Hidden Markov Model with two indicators for the employment
contract type that accounts for both random and systematic measurement
error.
