Abstract: The aim of this paper is to analyse individuals' feelings of justice concerning their wages conducting a survey of opinions. First of all, we wonder if these feelins are due to fairness norms or if they reflect a mere desire to maximize their incomes. If we can identify these norms, we wonder in a second stage if they result from an a priori judgement about what is fair.
