Résumé

Les travailleurs bénéficient de performances différentes sur le marché du travail en fonction de leur âge : le taux d'emploi exhibe une trajectoire en cloche en fonction de l'âge, tandis que le taux de chômage est continuellement décroissant. Au cours des dernières décennies, le taux de chômage a augmenté pour toutes les catégories d'âge, mais essentiellement pour les plus jeunes, tandis que les taux d'emploi et de participation ont essentiellement diminué pour les plus jeunes et les plus âgés. Nous construisons dans cet article un modèle d'appariement à la Pissarides (1990) apte à rendre compte de ces phénomènes.

Summary

Summary

The ageing of workers is a key factor to explain their different performance on the labour market. Employment rates by age are in general bell-shaped, whereas unemployment rates by age are generally continously decreasing. Over the past decades, employment and participation rates have particularly decreased for two different age categories: the youngest and the eldest. We build a matching model of unemployment aimed at understanding these features.
