abstract: 'Minimum wages are increasingly discussed as an instrument against
|
||||
|
||||
(in-work) poverty and income inequality in Europe. Just recently the
|
||||
|
||||
German government opted for a substantial ad-hoc increase of the
|
||||
|
||||
minimum-wage level to euro12 per hour mentioning poverty prevention as
|
||||
|
||||
an explicit goal. We use the introduction of the federal minimum wage in
|
||||
|
||||
Germany in 2015 to study its redistributive impact on disposable
|
||||
|
||||
household incomes. Based on the German Socio-Economic Panel we analyse
|
||||
|
||||
changes in poverty and income inequality investigating different
|
||||
|
||||
mechanisms of the transmission from individual gross wage-rates to
|
||||
|
||||
disposable household incomes. We find that the minimum wage is an
|
||||
|
||||
inadequate tool for income redistribution because it does not target
|
||||
|
||||
poor households. Individuals affected by the minimum wage are not
|
||||
|
||||
primarily in households at the bottom of the income distribution but are
|
||||
|
||||
spread across it. Consequently, welfare dependence decreases only
|
||||
|
||||
marginally. The withdrawal of transfers or employment effects cannot
|
||||
|
||||
explain the limited effect on poverty. Complementary simulations show
|
||||
|
||||
that neither full compliance nor a markedly higher level of euro12 per
|
||||
|
||||
hour can render the minimum wage more effective in reducing poverty.'
