abstract: 'This paper examines the potential effects on inequality and poverty of
a
minimum wage increase, based on a microsimulation model that captures
the details of household composition and the income tax and welfare
benefit system and allows for labour supply responses. Results suggest
that, largely due to the composition of household incomes, a policy of
increasing the minimum wage has a relatively small effect on the
inequality of income per adult equivalent person, and a money metric
utility measure, using several inequality indices. Hence, the minimum
wage policy does not appear to be particularly well targeted, largely
due to many low wage earners being secondary earners in higher income
households, while many low income households have no wage earners at
all. These results are reinforced when allowing for wage spillovers
further up the wage distribution. Nevertheless, a minimum wage increase
can have a more substantial effect on some poverty measures for sole
parents in employment.'
