abstract: 'We demonstrate that Mexicans and Central Americans legalized through he
|
|
|
|
1986 Immigration Reform and Control Act suffer a substantial pay penalty
|
|
|
|
for working at jobsites where co-ethnics predominate, above and beyond
|
|
|
|
the influences of low levels of human capital, employment in informal or
|
|
|
|
secondary sector jobs, or in less-skilled occupations. Utilizing the
|
|
|
|
1992 Legalized Population Survey, we regress wages on individual, job,
|
|
|
|
and occupational characteristics. These models demonstrate a sizable,
|
|
|
|
negative effect of employment in a Latino ghetto, which outweighs the
|
|
|
|
effects of many years of education, labor force experience, or job
|
|
|
|
tenure. Most of the respondents work at jobsites saturated with
|
|
|
|
co-ethnics, and such segregation puts them at a pronounced monetary
|
|
|
|
disadvantage. We argue that policies to improve immigrant Latinos'' labor
|
|
|
|
market outcomes must move beyond prescriptions for enhancing workers''
|
|
|
|
human capital to address structural factors that contribute to
|
|
|
|
underpayment at Latino jobsites.'
