Henry Redondo
Assistant Professor of Economics
Department of Economics, University of Alicante
I am an Assistant Professor at the University of Alicante. I received my PhD from Universidad Carlos III de Madrid. My research aims to better understand workers' reactions to economic shocks and the causes of labor market inequality. I am particularly interested in how institutional features and policy interventions shape these dynamics across different groups of workers.

show that workers’ ability to adjust to large shocks depends critically on local sectoral composition, and to introduce a novel reallocation index that captures individual workers’ outside options across sectors
