Optimal Taxation and Monopsonistic Labor Market: Does Monopsony Justify the Minimum Wage?

Cahuc, Pierre; Laroque, Guy - Institute for the Study of Labor (IZA) - 2007

We analyze optimal taxation in an economy with monopsonistic labor markets. The individuals, whose only decisions are whether to work, or not, have heterogeneous productivities and opportunity costs of work. Given its preferences for redistribution, the government, which does not observe the...

Hirsch, Barry T.; Schumacher, Edward J. - Institute for the Study of Labor (IZA) - 2004

The market for hospital registered nurses (RNs) is often offered as an example of “classic” monopsony, while a “new …” monopsony literature emphasizes firm labor supply being upwardsloping for reasons other than market structure. Using data from … several sources, we explore the relationship between wages and measures of classic and new monopsony. Micro wage data for 1993 …

Do Frictions Matter in the Labor Market? Accessions, Separations and Minimum Wage Effects

Dube, Arindrajit; Lester, T. William; Reich, Michael - Institute for the Study of Labor (IZA) - 2011

We measure labor market frictions using a strategy that bridges design-based and structural approaches: estimating an equilibrium search model using reduced-form minimum wage elasticities identified from border discontinuities and fitted with Bayesian and LIML methods. We begin by providing the...

Elasticity of Supply to the Firm and the Business Cycle

Depew, Briggs; Sorensen, Todd - Institute for the Study of Labor (IZA) - 2011

A body of recent empirical work has found strong evidence that the labor elasticity of supply to the firm is finite, implying that firms may have wage setting power. However, these studies capture only snapshots of the parameter. We study this parameter over a period that provides substantial...

Local Employer Competition and Training of Workers

Rzepka, Sylvi; Tamm, Marcus - Institute for the Study of Labor (IZA) - 2013

Firm Market Power and the Earnings Distribution

Webber, Douglas A. - Institute for the Study of Labor (IZA) - 2013

Using linked employer-employee data, I compute firm-level measures of the labor supply elasticity facing each private non-farm firm in the US. I provide the first direct evidence of the positive relationship between a firm's labor supply elasticity and the earnings of its workers. I also...
