Essays in labour and family economics

Are the less healthy relatively less employed because they are unable to work? Or vice versa? In the first part of the thesis, I evaluate the impact of health shocks on individual labour market transitions in 27 EU countries and I explain these results through the heterogeneity in social security systems across members. In the second part, I investigate the mechanism through which tied transfers relate to both elderly and grandchildren care later on in life.
