Abstract: This paper aims to test the intrinsic motivation of licensed in-home services (LIHS) employees with an emphasis on the differences in hourly wages paid to the employees of non-profit LIHS and for-profit LIHS employees. Our approach is to test intrinsic motivation by using the "labor donation" theory of Preston (1989), depending on whether the LIHS organization is for-profit or non-profit. This theory states that employees in non-profit sectors place lower value on money and higher value on non-monetary benefits such as social responsibility. The analysis is based upon French data: DADS (official wage data) from Insee, the French National Institute of Statistics ; Dares French Labor Study data ; and Nova data from ANSP, the national agency for development of in-home services. We estimate an Endogenous Switching Model with two methods. First, we adopt the two-step Heckman approach with extended correction terms. Second, we estimate the model with the Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) method where we include instrumental variables for identification purposes.
