KEY TAKEAWAY

Ines: “... I'm interested in the relationship between workers and firms, but my questions are usually from the point of view of how a firm develops their internal strategy. So instead of asking the question of what are the decisions that workers make that lead to certain outcomes in the labor market, I ask, what are the decisions that firms make that lead to certain outcomes in the labor market?”
