鉴于工资和收入不平等的加剧,引入法律的最低工资最近成为德国的一个重要政策问题。我们分析了全国法律的最低工资为每小时7.50欧元的分配效果的基础上的微观模拟模型,该模型考虑了个人工资,税收福利制度和家庭净收入之间的复杂相互作用,也考虑了潜在的就业影响以及对消费的间接影响。模拟结果表明,最低工资即使能使工资分配底层的小时工资大幅增加,但在提高家庭净收入和缩小收入不平等方面效果不佳。德国最低工资的无效性主要是由于现行的经济状况调查收入支助制度和最低工资劳动者在收入分配中的地位。
In view of rising wage and income inequality, the introduction of a legal minimum wage has recently become an important policy issue in Germany. We analyze the distributional effects of a nationwide legal minimum wage of 7.50 € per hour on the basis of a microsimulation model which accounts for the complex interactions between individual wages, the tax-benefit system and net household incomes, also taking into account potential employment effects as well as indirect effects on consumption. Simulation results show that the minimum wage would be rather ineffective in raising net household incomes and reducing income inequality, even if it led to a substantial increase in hourly wages at the bottom of the wage distribution. The ineffectiveness of a minimum wage in Germany is mainly due to the existing system of means-tested income support and the position of minimum wage earners in the income distribution.
