Establishment size and the task content of jobs: evidence from 46 countries
利用46个国家的家庭和企业调查数据，发现大企业员工从事更多非常规分析性任务，且更多使用信息技术，这解释了5-20%的大企业工资溢价。
Abstract Using a mix of household‐ and employer‐based survey data from 46 countries, we provide novel evidence that workers in larger establishments perform more non‐routine analytical tasks, even within narrowly defined occupations. Moreover, workers in larger establishments rely more on the use of information and communication technologies to perform these tasks. We also document a 15% raw wage premium that workers in larger establishments enjoy relative to their counterparts in smaller establishments. A mediation analysis shows that our novel empirical facts on the task content of jobs are able to explain 5–20% of the establishment size wage premium, a similar fraction to what can be explained by selection of workers on education, gender and age.
