Aggregate Reallocation Shocks and the Dynamics of Occupational Mobility and Wage Inequality
This paper presents a dynamic model of structural unemployment and occupational choice in which an economy is subjected to aggregate reallocation shocks. Reallocation shocks, which change the relative labour productivity across occupations, drive variation in the distribution of workers across occupations. The wage paid to workers in a given occupation depends on its labour productivity and the...
متن کاملInequality and Mobility: Trends in Wage Growth for Young Adults
After two decades of rising wage inequality, it is important to examine the impact of these changes on lifetime wage growth. This paper compares the intragenerational mobility of two NLS cohorts of young white men: the first entered the labor market in the late 1960s, the second in the early 1980s. For each cohort, we analyze wage profiles across 16 years using a mixed-effects model. We find th...
متن کاملGender Wage Inequality: The De-gendering of the Occupational Structure
The gender segregation of occupations is an enduring feature of the labour market, and pay in femaledominated occupations remains lower than in male-dominated occupations. However, recent changes in the occupational structure have possibly altered the relationship between occupational segregation and the gender pay gap. Women’s skills are increasingly in demand, and this is reducing the gender ...
متن کاملIndividual Wage Mobility Individual Wage Mobility
This paper identifies some of the determinants of individual mobility in the wage distribution over time. The proposed model takes attrition as well as the decile of origin into account unlike all other used models to describe the wage mobility. A simpel probit analysis is compared with the more sofisticated method used in this paper. Even though the wage distribution in Denmark has been nearly...
متن کاملWage Inequality, Minimum Wage Effects and Spillovers
This paper investigates possible spillover effects of the UK minimum wage. The halt in the growth in inequality in the lower half of the wage distribution (as measured by the 50:10 percentile ratio) since the mid 1990s, in contrast to the continued inequality growth in the upper half of the distribution, suggests the possibility of a minimum wage effect and spillover effects on wages above the ...
