本文考察了失业者为摆脱失业而迁移的意愿。经验估计是基于德国社会经济小组2001年至2009年的数据。根据双变量概率单位方法，估计失业和迁移的联合概率，以解释迁移方程中失业变量的内禀性。研究结果表明，与就业人员的工作相关流动概率相比，离职失业的流动概率要低得多。失业群体的物质和特别是非物质移徙成本似乎超过了移徙的好处。因此，劳动力市场政策应增加对失业者的流动奖励，并扩大职业介绍所的区域交流。
This paper examines the willingness of the unemployed to migrate in order to exit unemployment. The empirical estimation is based on data from the German Socio Economic Panel (GSOEP) from the years 2001 to 2009. Following a bivariate probit approach, results are obtained estimating the joint probability of being unemployed and to move to account for the endogeneity of the unemployment variable in the migration equation. The findings indicate that the probability of moving to exit unemployment is much lower compared to the work related moving probability of employed people. Material and in particular immaterial migration costs for the unemployed group appear to exceed the benefit of moving. Consequently, labour market policy should increase moving incentives for the unemployed and expand the regional interchange of employment agencies.
