I am a Senior Research Fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Research on Collective Goods.

My research lies at the nexus of management research and labor economics. In particular, I examine the causal effects of human resource management (HRM) practices on employee behavior. To this end, I conduct field experiments in collaboration with firms and analyze firm data using data science methods. A key area of interest in my research is absenteeism.

My overarching objective is to contribute to a paradigm shift toward evidence-based management, advocating for HRM practices that promote both employee well-being and organizational success.
