Review of Income and Wealth, 1998, vol. 44, issue 2, 239-256

Abstract: This paper examines wage differentials at the firm level in Chile and Brazil, using data for 1985 and 1991, and 1987 respectively. The high level of disaggregation in the data available for Chile enables us also to analyze the degree to which wage differentials between individual employers are similar across occupations. The results of this study reaffirm those of previous research pointing to non‐competitive explanations for wage differentials, specifically providing clear evidence that inter‐firm wage premia are highly correlated across occupations.
