Which employers regard the threat of dismissal as a suitable incentive to motivate workers?
Using German establishment data, this study finds that the share of blue-collar workers, an outdated production technology and a high-wage policy increase the probability that employers regard the threat of dismissal as a suitable incentive. A participatory HRM policy, the incidence of a works council and difficulties in filling vacancies decrease the probability.
