The Effect of Minimum Wage Policies on the Wage and Occupational Structure of Establishments
利用美国10个州2014-2015年最低工资上调的机构层面面板数据，研究发现最低工资上涨导致机构内工资溢出，管理层工资上升，但职业结构重组证据不足，总体工资不平等下降。
Using establishment-level panel data from the Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics program, I estimate the effect of minimum wage increases implemented by 10 states in 2014 and 2015. I show that minimum wage increases lead to wage spillovers within establishments. I find little evidence that minimum wage increases induce establishments to reorganize their occupational mix. Finally, I find that minimum wage increases propagate up the management hierarchy, leading to increased wages for supervisors. Nonetheless, I find that overall wage inequality decreases within establishments after minimum wage increases.
