Popis: Informality is a dening characteristic of labor markets in developing and transition countries. This paper analyzes patterns of mobility across dierent forms of formal and informal employment in Russia. Using the RLMS household panel we estimate a dynamic multinomial logit model with individual heterogeneity and correct for the initial conditions problem. Simulations show that structural state dependence is weak and that transition rates from informal to formal employment are not lower than from other origin states. These results lend support to the integrated view of the labor market. JEL classication: J6
