In this paper, we link every police report in Finland to administrative data to identify violence between colleagues, and the economic consequences for victims, perpetrators, and firms. This new approach to observe when one colleague attacks another overcomes previous data constraints limiting evidence on this phenomenon to self-reported surveys that do not identify perpetrators. We document large, persistent labor market impacts of between-colleague violence on victims and perpetrators. Male perpetrators experience substantially weaker consequences after attacking female colleagues. Perpetrators’ relative economic power in male-female violence partly explains this asymmetry. Turning to broader implications for firm recruitment and retention, we find that male-female violence causes a decline in the proportion of women at the firm, both because fewer new women are hired and current female employees leave. Management plays a key role in mediating the impacts on the wider workforce. Only male-managed firms lose women. Female-managed firms exhibit a key difference relative to male-managed firms: male perpetrators are less likely to remain employed after attacking their female colleagues.

工作中针对女性的暴力行为

在本文中，我们将芬兰的每份警方报告与行政数据联系起来，以识别同事之间的暴力行为，以及对受害者、施暴者和公司造成的经济后果。这种观察一名同事何时攻击另一名同事的新方法克服了之前的数据限制，即这种现象的证据仅限于自我报告的调查，但无法识别肇事者。我们记录了同事间暴力对受害者和施暴者对劳动力市场产生的巨大、持续的影响。男性施暴者在攻击女性同事后遭受的后果要弱得多。男女暴力行为者的相对经济实力在一定程度上解释了这种不对称性。转向对公司招聘和保留的更广泛影响，我们发现男女暴力导致公司中女性比例下降，两者都是因为新雇用的女性人数减少以及现有女性员工的离职。管理层在调解对更广泛劳动力的影响方面发挥着关键作用。只有男性管理的公司才会失去女性。与男性管理的公司相比，女性管理的公司表现出一个关键的区别：男性施暴者在攻击女性同事后继续就业的可能性较小。
