Arbeitsmärkte und Sozialversicherungen

Nicolas Ziebarth ist seit Juli 2022 Leiter des ZEW-Forschungsbereichs „Arbeitsmärkte und Sozialver-sicherungen“. Zudem hat er eine Professur an der Universität Mannheim inne. Zuvor war er von 2011 bis 2022 Professor auf Lebenszeit an der Cornell Universität in den USA. Dr. Ziebarth war zuvor am DIW Berlin tätig und wurde 2011 von Gert Wagner und Regina Riphahn an der TU Berlin zum Dr. rer. oec. promoviert.

Professor Ziebarth forscht in erster Linie zu den Zusammenhängen zwischen Sozialversicherungssystemen, der Volksgesundheit und dem Arbeitsmarkt. Insbesondere ist er ein internationaler Experte auf dem Gebiet der Lohnfortzahlung im Krankheitsfall. Seine Forschung dazu wurde international diskutiert, beispielsweise von der New York Times, der Washington Post, dem Wall Street Journal, der WHO oder dem Economist. Sie diente mit als Begründung für die erstmalige (zeitweise) Einführung einer Lohnfortzahlung im Krankheitsfall in den USA auf Bundesebene (Families First Coronavirus Response Act, Healthy Families Act).

Professor Ziebarth wurde vielfach für seine Forschung ausgezeichnet. Das weltweite Ökonomennetzwerk RePEc listet ihn unter den besten 0,2 Prozent aller Ökonomen weltweit mit weniger als 15 Jahren Forschungstätigkeit. 2021 listete ihn das Handelsblattranking an 12. Stelle aller deutschsprachigen Ökonomen unter 40.
