Wage, Tenure, and Wage Growth Variation within and across Establishments
利用美国劳工统计局的白领全职员工调查数据,估计了企业层面的工资、任期和工资增长差异,发现高工资企业通常雇佣更高质量的工人,且工资增长率在企业间差异显著。
The authors estimate employer-specific wage, tenure, and wage growth differentials using a unique Bureau of Labor Statistics' establishment survey of full-time, white-collar workers. Employer wage and tenure differentials, conditional on worker characteristics, are substantial in these data. Education, potential experience, and tenure are highly correlated within an establishment. High-wage establishments generally employ higher quality workers, and the most-skilled men and professionals typically work with the most-skilled women and nonprofessionals. There is significant variation in wage growth rates across employers and high wage growth establishments tend to have longer tenure, all else equal. Copyright 1997 by University of Chicago Press.
