Racial Earnings Differentials and Performance Pay
提出信息模型,认为按产出计酬的工人面临的种族收入歧视少于按时间计酬或接受主管评估的工人。基于全国青年纵向调查数据,发现按产出计酬的男性工人无种族工资差异,而按时间计酬者差异显著;此外,基于主管评估的奖金支付往往扩大种族工资差异。
This paper presents an information model in which workers receiving output-based pay experience less racial earnings discrimination than those receiving time rates and supervisory evaluations. Tests using the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth reveal no racial wage differential among male workers paid output-based pay while confirming a significant differential among those paid time rates. In addition, the racial wage differential among those receiving bonus pay, usually based on supervisory evaluations, tends to be larger than for those not receiving such bonuses.
