Partial Equal Treatment in Wage Offers

Kohei Kawamura, Jozsef Sakovics

Research output: Working paperDiscussion paper

Abstract

We analyse a labour matching model with wage posting, where - reflecting institutional constraints - firms cannot differentiate their wage offers within certain subsets of workers. Inter alia, we find that the presence of impersonal wage offers leads to wage compression, which propagates to the wages for high productivity workers who receive personalized offers.
