Intergenerational Earnings Mobility and the Inheritance of Employers
Corak, Miles - 2010
Our analysis of intergenerational earnings mobility modifies the Becker-Tomes model to incorporate the intergenerational transmission of employers, which is predicted to increase the intergenerational elasticity of earnings. About 6% of young Canadian men have the same main employer as their...
