我们证明了移民、地点和换了雇主的年轻男性工人的预测工资之间的关系存在种族差异。瓦哈卡的分解允许衡量移民、职业变化、地点特征和人力资本对种族工资差距的贡献。移民减少了黑人和白人的工资差异,并且对地点属性的工资补偿有利于白人家庭。对职业选择和移民的限制抑制了黑人提高工资的能力。因为大多数工作变动都发生在职业生涯的头十年,这些关于年轻员工的研究结果对种族工资差距的起源和持续提供了重要的总体见解。版权所有2006布莱克威尔出版社。
We demonstrated racial differences in the relationship between migration, location, and predicted wages for young male workers who have changed employers. An Oaxaca decomposition allowed a measuring of the contributions of migration, occupation change, site features, and human capital to the racial wage gap. Migration decreases black-white wage differences, and wage compensation for site attributes favors white householders. Constraints on occupation choice and migration dampen the ability of blacks to improve wages. Because most job changes occur in the first ten years of a career, these results on young workers give important general insights into the origins and persistence of racial wage gaps.
