Clément Brébion joined CBS in September 2020 as a postdoctoral researcher. He received his PhD in economics in November 2019 from the Paris School of Economics (PSE), after a master’s degree in Social Policy from the London School of Economics and a master’s degree in economics from PSE. His main research interests are social sustainability, industrial relations, institutional research and labour economics. He investigates how firms strategically shape their hiring and firing behaviours and set wages in response to their environment, with a focus on three institutional spheres: unemployment insurance, apprenticeship training and collective bargaining. For instance, he has studied how firms adapt their hiring decisions to unemployment insurance eligibility conditions and how firms adapt their training behaviour to subsidies offered to employers of apprentices. He is also interested in comparative research: in his PhD thesis, he has led a comparative analysis of the French and German apprenticeship systems. This work received the 2nd prize of the Best PhD Award on Labor Markets from the French Unemployment Insurance (Pôle Emploi). More recently, he started working on the EU H2020 project HECAT that aims at developing and piloting an ethical algorithm and platform for use by PES and jobseekers.
