Fringe Benefits Provision by Rural Small Businesses
利用大量农村企业样本，研究雇主规模与附加福利提供的关系，发现只有健康保险与规模存在明确关联，且技能水平高的企业中这种负相关较弱。
Abstract We examine the relationship between employer size and the provision of fringe benefits in a large sample of rural businesses. A clear employer size‐benefits relationship exists only in the case of health insurance, while other benefits are not strongly linked to employer size. The negative relationship between employer size and health insurance is weaker, though still existent, in businesses whose employees have relatively high skill levels. Single, independent establishments and sole proprietorships are less likely to provide fringe benefits than multi‐establishment and corporate firms.
