abstract: 'This study analyzes the long-term effect of labor market institutions,
|
|
|
|
such as minimum wage and union density, on inequality, investment,
|
|
|
|
growth, and consumption, by using data of the member countries of the
|
|
|
|
Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development since the 1970s.
|
|
|
|
Labor market institution variables are used to test arguments on
|
|
|
|
wage-led growth theory.
|
|
|
|
Panel cointegration approach was used to investigate the long-term
|
|
|
|
effect of these variables. Results of panel cointegration test show that
|
|
|
|
variables of labor market institutions are not robustly correlated to
|
|
|
|
macroeconomic outcomes in the long run. This condition is not in
|
|
|
|
accordance with the findings of the proponents and critics of wage-led
|
|
|
|
growth. No robust evidence exists to show that increasing minimum wage
|
|
|
|
and union density, which are representative policies for wage-led
|
|
|
|
growth, are correlated to inequality, labor income share, consumption,
|
|
|
|
investment, or growth in the long run. Estimation results of this study
|
|
|
|
suggest that the empirical basis of support and criticism for wage-led
|
|
|
|
growth theory is weak.'
