Recruitment compensation gaps and firm value

Haocheng Yue and Jingcheng Li

Finance Research Letters, 2025, vol. 79, issue C

Abstract: Using recruitment information data of listed companies obtained from job platforms from 2014 to 2023, we examine the impact of recruitment compensation gaps on firm value. These findings indicate that compensation gaps in recruitment are not a manifestation of unfairness; rather, they exert a positive effect on companies, enhancing firm value. Further analysis concludes that the positive impact is pronounced for firms with higher market competition intensity.
