abstract: 'We use longitudinal data from the income tax system to study the impacts
|
|
|
|
of firms'' employment and wage-setting policies on the level and change
|
|
|
|
in immigrant-native wage differences in Canada. We focus on immigrants
|
|
|
|
who arrived in the early 2000s, distinguishing between those with and
|
|
|
|
without a college degree from two broad groups of countries - the U.S.,
|
|
|
|
the U.K. and Northern Europe, and the rest of the world. Consistent with
|
|
|
|
a growing literature based on the two-way fixed effects model of Abowd,
|
|
|
|
Kramarz, and Margolis (1999), we find that firm-specific wage premiums
|
|
|
|
explain a significant share of earnings inequality in Canada and
|
|
|
|
contribute to the average earnings gap between immigrants and natives.
|
|
|
|
In the decade after receiving permanent status, earnings of immigrants
|
|
|
|
rise relative to those of natives. Compositional effects due to
|
|
|
|
selective outmigration and changing participation play no role in this
|
|
|
|
gain. About one -sixth is attributable to movements up the job ladder to
|
|
|
|
employers that offer higher pay premiums for all groups, with
|
|
|
|
particularly large gains for immigrants from the ``rest of the
|
|
|
|
world{''''}countries. Crown Copyright (c) 2021 Published by Elsevier B.V.
