Estimating Price Elasticity of Labor Supply in Ride-sharing Markets (Case Study: Tapsi), M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Madanizadeh, Ali (Supervisor) ; Joshaghani, Hossein (Supervisor)
Abstract
Because of flexibility in labor supply, ride-sharing market is a good platform for estimating drivers’ working hours in response to hourly earning changes. In this research using ride-sharing markets’ data and controlling for geographic effects and time and individual fixed effects, we have estimated 0.0129 for price elasticity of drivers’ working hours. Literature has focused on estimating the elasticity in time horizons shorter than a day (non-stop active hours), while in this paper we have also estimated the elasticity in daily horizon.We have also analyzed the heterogeneity of different types of drivers (Full-Time or Part-Time, Tehran or non-Tehran Plates, Gender and Experience) in...
