目的-本文的目的是研究企业间工资差异在德国最近总工资不平等增加中所起的作用，并将其与个人层面的不平等变化进行比较。有人问，机构异质性对工资不平等加剧的贡献是源于机构环境的变化，还是源于机构规模和劳动力构成等结构。设计/方法/方式-应用回归为基础的方差分解，德国联系雇主-雇员面板数据，2000-2010年，它分析到什么程度的变化与企业结构的总工资不平等的上升作出贡献。结果-结果表明，在德国的工资不平等的上升，在很大程度上是与各机构的工资差异上升，这意味着建立特定的工资溢价增长。通过进一步分解工资不平等的公司组成部分，发现与集体谈判、工人共同决策和内部劳动力市场有关的整个企业工资不平等的变化加起来约占总不平等上升的3%。与企业的技能和职业构成有关的不平等变化约占11%，仅企业规模就占总不平等上升的约18%。独创性/价值- -主要贡献是量化特定机构特征与总工资不平等随时间推移上升的关系。得出的结论是租金分享机制的重要性，在企业层面上的工资由个人资格的决定相比。
Purpose - – The purpose of this paper is to examine the role wage dispersion across establishments has played in recent increases in total wage inequality in Germany and compares it to inequality changes at the individual level. It is queried whether the contribution of establishment heterogeneity to the rise of wage inequality stems from changes of institutional settings or from structures such as establishment size and the composition of the workforce. Design/methodology/approach - – Applying regression-based decompositions of variance to German linked employer-employee panel data for the years 2000-2010 it is analysed to what extent changes associated to firm structures contribute to the rise of total wage inequality. Findings - – Results show that the rise in wage inequality in Germany to a great extent is associated to rising wage variance across establishments, implying that establishment specific wage premiums have grown. By further decomposing across firm components of wage inequality, it is found that changes in across establishment wage inequality related to collective bargaining, worker co-determination and internal labour markets together account for about 3 per cent of the rise in total inequality. Inequality changes related to establishments’ skill and occupational composition account for about 11 per cent and establishment size alone accounts for about 18 per cent of the rise in total inequality. Originality/value - – The main contribution is to quantify the relation of specific establishment characteristics to the rise in total wage inequality over time. Conclusions are drawn about the importance of mechanisms of rent sharing at the firm level in comparison to the determination of wages by individual qualification.
