Wages and Performance-Based Pay: Evidence from the NLSY Economics Letters 51,2 (May 1996): 241-246. Also: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/016517659500775X Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: Elsevier Keyword(s): Benefits; Benefits, Fringe; Human Capital; Labor Economics; Modeling; Occupational Choice; Performance pay; Training, On-the-Job; Wage Determination The link between performance and pay should be strongest where performance is more accurately observed, Brown ("Industrial and Labor Relations Review," 1990, 43, 1655-1825; "RAND Journal of Economics," 1992, 23, 366-75). More productive workers self-select into jobs with performance-based pay. Consequently, workers whose pay is based on performance should earn more than those whose pay is not based on such measures. This paper adds to the literature on the subject by providing new empirical evidence for Brown's model using the National Longitudinal Surveys of Youth (NLSY) data. |
