General Information
The Institute for Labour Law and Industrial Relations in the European Union (IAAEU), together with the chair for Personnel Economics at Trier University, are jointly organising the 16th Workshop on Labour Economics, to be held on April 11-12, 2024. The Call for Papers can be found here.
We are happy to announce that this year’s keynote presentation “AI and the Labor Market” will be
held
by Christina Gathmann (LISER/ University of Luxembourg).
Furthermore, there will be a special session on counterfactual impact evaluation jointly organised with the Competence Centre on Microeconomic Evaluation (CC-ME) of the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission. While the use of register data is seen as beneficial, it is not mandatory. To have their papers considered for this session, researchers should explicitly state their interest when submitting.
The workshop provides a forum that allows scientists to network while fostering the exchange of research ideas and results across a range of fields, including labour and personnel economics, human resources, well-being, education, migration, inequality, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and more.

Who can participate in the workshop? Can I participate without presenting a paper?
Anyone interested is welcome to join. You can participate in the workshop as a guest without presenting a paper.
Is there a charge for participation?
The WLE 2024 is planned as an onsite event. We charge a conference fee of 120 EUR. The fee will cover the costs for lunches and beverages during the workshop, course materials and the conference dinner.
Is it possible to present in a language other than English?
The WLE is conducted entirely in English.
Is it possible that two or more authors present their results together?
It is possible to present together with co-authors.
May I submit more than one paper?

My paper is accepted for publication. Can I still submit it for presentation at the WLE?
In both your and our interests, we prefer to host presentations of unpublished work. However, in certain cases, there might be sufficient reasoning to present a work that is accepted for publication. Please provide this information when submitting.
Is it possible to update my paper after submission?
It is possible to update your submission up until about three weeks before the workshop starts – we even ask you to send us your latest work. For evaluation, we consider the version of your work that was present on the day the submission deadline ends.
