abstract: 'Previous studies have pointed to the existence of barriers at the entry
|
||||
|
||||
of self-employed sectors, such as liquidity constraints. In many
|
||||
|
||||
countries, policies are directed toward removing these barriers in order
|
||||
|
||||
to promote entrepreneurial activity. This paper examines whether such
|
||||
|
||||
barriers exist by examining the amount of rent enjoyed by self-employed
|
||||
|
||||
workers; if there are no barriers between the self-employed sector and
|
||||
|
||||
the salary/wage sector, self-employed workers should not enjoy rents.
|
||||
|
||||
Examination of the rent associated with self-employment, however, cannot
|
||||
|
||||
simply be accomplished by comparing the incomes of self-employed and
|
||||
|
||||
salary/wage workers. This is because self-employed workers may enjoy
|
||||
|
||||
higher utility due to their work environment, with such benefits as
|
||||
|
||||
autonomy and flexibility of work schedules. To overcome the difficulty
|
||||
|
||||
of measuring self-employment rents, I use self-reported job satisfaction
|
||||
|
||||
from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 79 (NLSY79) to capture
|
||||
|
||||
workers'' overall satisfaction with their jobs. The results robustly
|
||||
|
||||
indicate that self-employed workers are more satisfied with their jobs
|
||||
|
||||
than salary/wage workers, even after allowing for the time-invariant
|
||||
|
||||
individual heterogeneity in their reported job satisfaction. This result
|
||||
|
||||
suggests that there are barriers at the entry into self-employment and
|
||||
|
||||
that self-employed workers enjoy rents.'
