Book excerpt: Interindustry wage differentials in wage regressions estimated for individuals have been interpreted as evidence consistent with efficiency wage models. A principal competing explanation is that these differentials are generated by differences across workers in unobserved ability. This paper tests the unobserved ability hypothesis .by incorporating test scores into standard wage regressions as error-ridden indicators of unobserved ability. The results indicate that differences in unobserved ability explain relatively little of interindustry or interoccupation wage differentials.

Book excerpt: We provide evidence that US workers face a wage-effort offer curve with the high-wage high-effort jobs occurring in the capital intensive sectors. We find that real wage offers rose at every level of effort during the 1960's, a shift which is consistent with a decline in the rental cost of capital. During the 1970's, when relative prices of labor-intensive goods declined, the wage-effort offer curve twisted, offering lower pay for the low-paid jobs in the labor-intensive sectors but higher pay for the high-paid jobs in the capital-intensive sectors. In the 1980's, workers at every wage level began to work more hours for the same weekly wage. This we loosely attribute either to the increasing cost of non-wage benefits, especially health care, or to the introduction of new equipment. In studying the wage-effort offer curve rate of unionization, education, and rent sharing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation investigates the applicability of the shirking version of efficiency wage models in Korea. Analyses is based on the Survey on Wage Structure in the 1980's and 1990's - using data collected in 1983, 1989, 1993, 1996, and 1999. Efficiency wage theory predicts a negative relationship between supervision and wages: employers may choose either to pay a wage premium or to increase the level of supervisory intensity to force workers to exert more effort. The relation between supervisory intensity, as measured by the ratio of supervisors to supervisees in a firm, and wages is explored. Interaction effects between supervisory intensity and employer characteristics on wages are also investigated in more detailed analyses. Finally, we explore whether supervisory intensity is able to explain inter-industry wage differentials. The evidence suggests that supervisory intensity is positively correlated with wages, implying the efficiency wage model is not applicable in Korea. Industrial interaction analysis shows weak evidence of efficiency wages in the social service sector, but there are no apparent patterns in other industries. In occupational interaction analysis, efficiency wages are paid to drivers and sales workers. Although supervisory intensity does not explain wage variation across industries, there are significant inter-industry wage differentials observed in Korea.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper documents and analyzes changes in the wage structure across manufacturing industries over the last one hundred years. Inter-industry differentials in wages are highly stable for production workers, but autocorrelation patterns for nonproduction workers are considerably weaker. Industry wage patterns are very similar for production and nonproduction workers today, but this has been true only since 1958. Dispersion of wages across industries has shown varying trends over the last one hundred years, but has never in this century been higher than it is today. The variables that are most strongly correlated with wage growth are productivity growth, rising union density, rising capital intensity, and profit growth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wages are a vital economic variable in their influence on employment and unemployment and as the main source of personal income, affecting both living standards and labour incentives. Wage determination is studied here in an international perspective, using a common theoretical framework and statistical method through the individual country chapters to reveal similarities and differences between Japan, South Korea, the United States, Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, Germany and France.
