🚨 Our new investigation out today reveals how thousands of people who've taken their bosses to employment tribunals & won, never got paid, even after they approached the government for help.

This has serious implications for the Employment rights bill.

Thousands of rogue bosses get away with not paying tribunal awards

The government scheme ‘enforcing’ money owed to workers has been unsuccessful in a staggering three-quarters of cases

Could anyone share examples of well-designed and practical LaTeX presentations that are suitable for lecture slides? I am looking for some inspiration. #TeachEcon

Many thanks to the Association for Socioeconomic Education and Research for this honor! 🙏

Few things make an interdisciplinary social scientist happier than recognition from an interdisciplinary committee. My dissertation received the Elinor-Ostrom Prize for Socioeconomic Education and Research.🏆 #GSÖBW

No expectation to cite their own research? I thought that was usually required in the very first paragraph.

We are going to need a lot more Professor Horse leadership training to fill the gap he left. 😕

Check out this scatterplot of health spending per capita (x axis) & life expectancy (y axis) in OECD countries (lines = averages).

The United States sits alone in the bottom right area due to its very high spending rate and below-average life expectancy.

More www.oecd.org/en/publicati... 🧪

Figure 1.7 illustrates the extent to which countries that spend more on health have better health outcomes.
There is a clear positive association between health spending per capita and life expectancy at birth (Figure 1.7). Among the
38 OECD countries, 18 spend more and have higher life expectancy than the OECD average (top right quadrant). A further
11 countries spend less and have lower life expectancy than the OECD average (bottom left quadrant).
Of particular interest are countries that deviate from this basic relationship. Eight countries spend less than the OECD average
but achieve higher life expectancy overall (top left quadrant). This may indicate relatively good value for money of health systems,
notwithstanding the fact that many other factors also have an impact on health outcomes. These eight countries are Korea, Spain,
Italy, Israel, Portugal, Chile, Costa Rica and Slovenia. The only country in the bottom right quadrant is the United States, with
much higher spending than all other OECD countries but lower life expectancy than the OECD average.

Wie überall gibt es gute KollegInnen und weniger gute. 😄

Solange du nicht zu jenen gehörst die man überzeugen muss Literatur oder zumindest das Summary zu lesen bist du bereits ein Held. 😄

Als PostDoc muss man lernen ProfessorInnen ohne Zucker und Leine zu führen, idealerweise ohne das sie es merken. 😄

Thanks a lot for hosting @alexbryson.bsky.social!

Really looking forward to the exchange and to seeing some of my coauthors in person again. 😄

If anyone is in London and up for a coffee or a pint, let me know! ☕🍺

I am excited to spend this Fall in London at UCL/@sriucl.bsky.social. I already had the chance to provide first insights into Captured by Conflict.

I love this place! They have a monthly coffee RCT, randomly pairing people up for chats. Worse places to be for a coffee loving experimentalist.
