An influential recent literature argues that women are less likely to initiate bargaining with their employers and are (often) less effective negotiators than men. We use longitudinal wage data from Portugal, matched to balance sheet information on employers, to measure the relative bargaining...

We study the role of establishment-specific wage premiums in generating recent increases in West German wage inequality. Models with additive fixed effects for workers and establishments are fit in four sub-intervals spanning the period from 1985 to 2009. We show that these models provide a good...

We review the literature on firm-level drivers of labor market inequality. There is strong evidence from a variety of fields that standard measures of productivity – like output per worker or total factor productivity – vary substantially across firms, even within narrowly-defined...

"This FDZ Methodenreport describes the files and variables containing the person and establishment effects estimated by Card, Heining, and Kline 2013 and how this information may be combined with several of the data products available at the research Data Center (FDZ) of the German Federal...

"We study the role of establishment-specific wage premiums in generating recent increases in West German wage inequality. Models with additive fixed effects for workers and establishments are fit in four distinct time intervals spanning the period 1985-2009. Unlike standard wage models,...

Wir untersuchen den Beitrag von betriebsspezifischen Lohnaufschlägen, die in jüngerer Zeit zur Erhöhung der Lohnungleichheit in Westdeutschland beigetragen haben. Es werden Modelle mit additiv fixen Effekten für Arbeitnehmer und Betriebe für vier verschiedene Zeitintervalle über den...
