Research Officer - Health Economics: AMR funding landscapes and their implications for AMR containment in Kenya and Vietnam.

Africa and Asia, which host most low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), are projected to bear the greatest burden of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) if containment measures remain sub-optimal. Any implementation of AMR containment measures requires financing. In resource constrained countries, how funding is mobilized, allocated, and utilized at national and sub-national levels is not well understood despite the availability of costing and budgeting tools for AMR national action plan objectives and activities. This study investigates the current funding landscape and its implications for AMR containment in Kenya and Vietnam, two LMICs with decentralized and centralized health systems, respectively. Specifically, it assesses AMR funding sources, priorities, planning and accountability mechanisms, positive and negative incentives, challenges, and gaps, all aimed at informing strategies for strengthening AMR containment financing at national and sub-national level. It includes a review of national and sub-national funding and budgeting literature, non-participant observations, and key informant interviews with AMR containment actors.

« ­­A New Set of Indicators of Reserve Ampleness | Main

An Update on the Reservation Wages in the SCE Labor Market Survey

Gizem Kosar, Davide Melcangi, and Sasha Thomas

The Federal Reserve Bank of New York’s July 2024 SCE Labor Market Survey shows a year-over-year increase in the average reservation wage—the lowest wage respondents would be willing to accept for a new job—to $81,147, but a decline from a series’ high of $81,822 in March 2024. In this post, we investigate how the recent dynamics of reservation wages differed across individuals and how reservation wages are related to individuals’ expectations about their future labor market movements.

Reservation Wages  

The SCE Labor Market Survey , which has been fielded every four months since March 2014 as part of the broader Survey of Consumer Expectations (SCE), provides information on consumers’ experiences and expectations regarding the labor market. The data, together with a companion set of interactive charts showing a subset of the data that we collect, are published every four months by the New York Fed’s Center for Microeconomic Data . As with other components of the SCE, we report statistics not only for the overall sample, but also by various demographic categories, namely age, gender, education, and household income. The underlying micro (individual-level) data for the full survey are made available with an eighteen-month lag. 

Our measure of reservation wage comes from the following question in the SCE Labor Market Survey:  

Suppose someone offered you a job today in a line of work that you would consider. What   is the lowest wage or salary you would accept (BEFORE taxes and other deductions) for this job?  

This question is asked to all respondents (that is, to those who are employed, unemployed, or out of the labor force). For those who are out of work, this measure provides information on the tradeoff between out-of-work transfers (such as unemployment insurance or means-tested government transfers) and expected salaries. For those who are currently employed, this measure is informative of the tradeoff between their current total compensation package (including the salary and non-wage amenities) and alternative compensation packages potentially available at other employers.  

The chart below shows that the average reservation wage has increased by 31.4 percent between March 2020 and July 2024. Note, however, that this measure does not account for inflation. Deflating the series using the Consumer Price Index (CPI) indexed to 1 for March 2020, we find that the average real reservation wage increased by 8.2 percent during the same time period, while in fact it declined in the four years prior to the pandemic. This shows that even though part of the increase in respondents’ reservation wages is due to inflation, there has still been a rise in the minimum compensation respondents require to accept (new) job offers in real terms. However, it is worth noting that the average reservation wage in real terms has been essentially flat since early 2021.

The Average Reservation Wage Increased Faster Than Inflation since 2020

Next, we examine how this upward trend in reservation wages varied by respondents’ education and employment status. The left panel of the chart below shows that the growth in average reservation wages, relative to March 2020, was primarily driven by the respondents without a college degree up until March 2022. This implied a compression in reservation wages across education levels, since those with lower education have lower reservation wages.   

Between mid-2022 and the end of 2023, reservation wages have grown faster among college graduates, reversing the previous trend in the reservation wage compression. However, since the end of last year, the reservation wages of respondents without a college degree have accelerated again. In July 2024, the reservation wages of those without a college degree were closer to those of college graduates than they were before the onset of the pandemic. 

In the right panel of the chart below, we show that since mid-2022 the average reservation wage of the non-employed grew faster than that of employed respondents. This stands in contrast to the dynamics in the previous two years, as we had discussed in an earlier Liberty Street Economics post . Overall, as of July 2024, the average reservation wage growth of non-employed respondents has caught up with, and in fact exceeded, the average of employed respondents since the onset of the pandemic. 

Non-employed Consumers and Those without a College Degree Experienced Faster Reservation Wage Growth 

Reservation Wages and Expectations about Labor Market Flows  

We next examine how reservation wages are linked to expected labor market movements. Every four months, the SCE Labor Market survey elicits respondents’ expected likelihood of being non-employed, employed, or employed with the same employer (if employed) in the subsequent four months. In the table below, we relate these probabilistic expectations to reservation wages, controlling for the respondents’ time-varying observable characteristics and for individual fixed effects.  

The results show that workers with a 1 standard deviation ($44,614) higher reservation wage report 2.72 percentage points (or 32 percent) lower likelihood of moving to a new employer in the subsequent four months (column 1). On the other hand, column 2 shows that workers’ expectations about moving into non-employment do not statistically differ based on their reservation wages. For non-employed workers (including those who are unemployed and out of the labor force), we also observe that the average likelihood of moving into employment over the subsequent four months does not statistically differ based on respondent’s reservation wages.

Reservation Wages Are Meaningfully Related to Households’ Expected Job-to-Job Movements 

Conclusion  

Results of the July 2024 SCE Labor Market Survey show a slight decline in the average reservation wage to $81,147 from a series’ high $81,822 in March. However, we find that the average reservation wage increased faster than inflation since the onset of the pandemic. Overall, the patterns suggest a compression in the reservation wage distribution by education and employment status. We also document that reservation wages are meaningfully related to households’ expectations about their future labor market movements.

Organization: UN Women - United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women Country: Thailand City: Bangkok Office: UN Women Bangkok Follow @UNjobs UN Women, grounded in the vision of equality enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, works for the elimination of discrimination against women and girls; the empowerment of women; and the achievement of equality between women and men as partners and beneficiaries of development, human rights, humanitarian action and peace and security. A key area of concern for UN Women is women's economic empowerment (WEE) as expressed in UN Women's Strategic Plan 2022-2025 as well as in the targets and indicators of the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 5 for gender equality and women's empowerment and of several other SDGs relating to inclusive growth, decent work, ending poverty, and reducing inequality, and revitalizing the global partnership for sustainable development. Aligned with the global SP (2022-2025), the ROAP SN (2023-2025) will focus on six SP cross-thematic outcomes to drive results across the ROAP's thematic areas i.e., Inclusive governance, Ending Violence Against Women and Girls (EVAWG), Women's Economic Empowerment (WEE), Women Peace and Security (WPS), Climate Change, Humanitarian Action (HA) and DRR. It will also seek to enhance key areas of expertise in response to demand from country presences in the areas of economic planning, climate change and Knowledge Management (KM). Further, the ROAP's thematic and functional activities will be geared towards effective and targeted support for country presences. The work of UN Women is based on a triple mandate: A normative mandate to support the formulation of global and regional standards and norms for gender equality; an operational mandate to support UN member states in implementing these standards; and finally, a mandate to coordinate the UN system's efforts to deliver on its gender equality commitment. The Women's Economic Empowerment & Migration at the Regional Office for the Asia Pacific operates with the key overarching objective: Women have income security, decent work, and economic autonomy as articulated in the SN ROAP Women's Economic Empowerment & Migration: 2023-2025. The WEE portfolio is expanding focusing on the four key strategic priorities: Advancing Gender-Responsive Business Conduct and Creating More Decent Work Opportunities (WEPs) Transforming the Care Economy Accelerating Gender-Responsive Entrepreneurship for (M)SMEs (i.e. Gender-Responsive Procurement, Women's entrepreneurship etc.) Progressing Safe Migration to Decent Employment These thematic areas are not operating in isolation and are strongly inter-connected and under-pinned by cross-cutting principles, such as: sector-agnostic work (across the Green & Blue -, care, fintech and digital economy); embracing an intersectional and conscious social norms lens into programming, and nexus to thematic areas such as Climate Change, Ending Violence Against Women, Humanitarian and Women Peace and Security (WPS). The increased importance of Women's Economic Empowerment across the region and the numerous RO-led WEE initiatives has resulted in an increased demand for the Regional Office in Asia Pacific (ROAP) to expand and strengthen its work on its normative mandate, to ensure gender-responsive laws and policies for women's economic empowerment in a manner that is closely aligned with WEE ROAP programmes and results frameworks. This includes a growing need for research and knowledge production for the region. The Junior Consultant will act as an important support in the production of knowledge products aimed at enhancing evidence-informed decision making in the relevant areas for WEE. The objective of this consultancy is to provide specialized support in conducting gender analysis and supporting assessments pertaining to women's economic empowerment in countries in Asia and the Pacific region. The consultant will focus on advancing gender equality and women's empowerment within the transforming care systems discourse by conducting context-specific assessments on gendered rooted causes of inequalities in the world of work, including identifying policy areas as critical domains of change where evidence-enhanced decision making can be enhanced. Furthermore, the consultant's work will support the construction of a database for Asia and the Pacific for simulation of costing Sustainable Development Goals. Under the supervision and guidance of Gender Statistics Specialist in the WEE Team, this consultant seeks to gain experience in internationally agreed indicators and national sources of relevant data women's economic empowerment to conduct context-specific analysis to enhance evidence-informed decision making in the care economy and SDGs costing.
