Profile
Dr. Thomas Horvath is a Senior Economist at Österreichisches Institut für Wirtschaftsforschung.
He has been working Research Group “Labor Market, Income and Social Security” since 2010.

He worked at the Institute of Economics at the University of Linz, where he wrote his dissertation on micro econometric labor market analyses in 2015.
In addition to numerous WIFO studies and several book contributions, he has also published in international professional journals, including the Journal of Public Economics, Journal of the Royal Statistical Society, Regional Studies, and Labor Economics.
He studied Economics at the University of Vienna and a semester abroad in Amsterdam.
