利用比以往更全面的数据,记录了1981-1997年间美国雇主提供的附加福利不平等的变化,发现更广泛的补偿指标的不平等增长略高于工资不平等增长,且低工资工人的附加福利相对下降。

Abstract

This paper documents changing inequality in employer-provided fringe benefits in the United States using much more comprehensive data than previously available. Inequality growth in broader measures of compensation slightly exceeds wage inequality growth over the 1981–1997 period. Employer costs due to paid leave, pensions, and health insurance fell for low wage labor and rose for high wage labor over this period. The findings suggest income effects as a contributory factor in the relative decline of fringe benefits among low wage workers.
