进入劳动力市场时的经济条件可能导致在不同时间进入劳动力市场的工人之间的工资差异。虽然这些入职工资差异的存在和持续性有充分的文件证明,但人们对它们与雇员流动行为的相互作用知之甚少。本文有助于这一研究领域的分析工作流动性和入职工资差异之间的相互作用,使用德国的行政数据。结果表明,收入低于平均起薪的劳动力市场进入者更有可能直接从一个雇主换到另一个雇主,以及通过失业咒语间接换工作。此外,他们更有可能改变职业。此外,工作流动往往会减少劳动力市场进入条件的影响,这意味着工作流动是一种调整机制,可以减少进入工资的差异。这些结果不仅适用于高技能工人,也适用于中等技能和非技能工人。
Economic conditions at the time of labour market entry can induce wage differentials between workers entering the labour market at different points in time. While the existence and persistence of these entry wage differentials are well documented, little is known about their interaction with employees' mobility behaviour. This paper contributes to this research area by analyzing the interaction between job mobility and entry wage differentials using German administrative data. The results suggest that labour market entrants earning less than the average starting wage are more likely to change jobs, directly from employer to employer as well as indirectly via an unemployment spell. In addition they are more likely to change occupation. Moreover, job mobility tends to reduce the effects of labour market entry conditions, implying that job mobility operates as an adjustment mechanism that mitigates entry wage differentials. These results hold not only for high-skilled, but also for medium-skilled and unskilled workers.
