本文使用了一个匹配的雇主-雇员数据集为加纳,并采用分位数回归的方法,允许工会化的影响,以不同的条件工资分布。它表明,如果有公司内部的差异,在工会化,似乎是一个溢价较低的工资工人在正规部门。虽然这不能给出一个因果解释,但它表明了工会如何影响劳动力市场的一部分的重要问题。
The article uses a matched employer-employee data set for Ghana and adopts a quantile regression approach that allows the effects of unionization to vary across the conditional wage distribution. It is shown that if there are intrafirm differences in unionization, there does appear to be a premium among poorer paid workers in the formal sector. Although this cannot be given a causal interpretation, it suggests important issues about how unions may affect one part of the labor market.
