        AB  - In this paper we simultaneously analyze transitions from unemployment to employment and
to nonparticipation. We estimate a dependent competing risks model with nonparametric
specifications of the destination-specific duration dependence and unobserved heterogeneity
terms. We use a unique population data set of French unemployment over the period 1988-
1994, stratified by gender type, duration class and exit state.
