the impact of local wage regulation on employment: aborder analysis from italy in the 1950s
时间:2017-04-15

【摘要】This paper measures the impact of wage zones—compulsory wage differentials at theprovince level—on Italy’s local labor markets during the 1950s. Using spatial regression techniques, itfinds that for the industrial sectors covered under wage zones there was an increase in employmentwhen one crossed the border from a high-wage province into a low-wage one; the effect diminished,however, as the distance from the boundary increased. The paper also illustrates that the impact on theoverall (nonfarm) private sector, which includes both covered and uncovered sectors, was negligible.
