Abstract
Firing taxes have real effects only if layoffs are subsidized relative to quits, as it is Pareto optimal to label a separation a quit whenever doing so maximizes joint wealth. Given the size of layoff subsidies in OECD countries, firing taxes are an unlikely candidate to explain cross-country differences in labour market performance
