A Study of the Relationship between Family Income and Worker Compensation Measured as Wage and Fringe Benefits M.A. Thesis, Department of Business Administration, Kent State University, 2016 Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: ProQuest Dissertations & Theses (PQDT) Keyword(s): Benefits, Fringe; Family Income; Wages Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. In this study, I investigate the relationship between family (or parental) income and worker compensation. I consider compensation in the form of wage and fringe benefits. Most existing studies of intergenerational linkages focus solely on wage income. Therefore, I add to the literature by examining the relationship between parental income and a broader measure of compensation. The data used for the analysis are from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY-79). I report results separately for (i) the intergenerational income elasticity, (ii) the relationship between family income and the number of benefits provided by an individual's employer and (iii) the likelihood that each of nine specific fringe benefits is available to the individual. For much of the thesis, I consider a single year of compensation data (2008), but I also extend the analysis to a measure of long term compensation. |
