概要
本研究では、労働者の属性や労働市場の状態が中国の都市労働者の賃金に与える影響について、理論的、実証的考察を行う。実証研究では、中国の個票データを用い、都市出身者および都市に長期居住している地方出身労働者に焦点を当てた分析を行う。我々の分析結果は、労働市場の状態は労働者の賃金に重大な影響を持つことを示した。さらに分解分析の結果から、地方出身者と都市出身者の間で観察される賃金格差は、教育水準などの個人属性ではなく、有効求人倍率等の居住している都市の労働市場の状態の差がもたらしていることも明らかとなった。
概要（英語）
By developing a model based on recent wage theories, we examine workers' wage determination, considering not only human-capital related factors but also the labor market. We also consider the price level using a city-specific consumer price index. Data come from a national survey in China, while unlike previous studies that examine temporary rural-urban migrants in China, we concentrate on permanent rural migrants who have obtained an urban household registration. We find that considering the effects of the labor market is important in examining workers' wage determination. The decomposition result shows that different effects of market tightness and unemployment benefits are the two primary reasons for the wage differential between the two groups, whereas education does not contribute to the wage gap. As a policy implication, our results indicate that supporting the workers' ability to adapt to the labor markets could reduce wage inequality.
