Keller Speaker Series Presentation, February 7, Tuesday, 6-7 pm, Room 2020

Topic:  Method of Pay, Legal Status and Wage Gaps

Speaker:  Dr. Ira Gang, Professor Economics, Rutgers University

Modern sensibilities demand equal pay for equal work. Indeed this is backed up almost universally by legislation. Yet we continue to observe almost everywhere wage gaps that simply should not exist. Using 1989-2006 National Agricultural Workers Survey (NAWS) data, we draw together complementary institutional elements-nativity, legal status of immigrants, and method of pay, to study why foreign-born workers are paid lower wages. A wage equation and a selection equation for the choice of compensation method are jointly estimated first. Results show that pay method is mostly not correlated with person characteristics. Rather, it is a function of the crops and tasks workers are engaged in. Workers paid by the hour earn less regardless of nativity and legal status. And, a number of worker, work, and employer characteristics are important wage determinants.

Ira N. Gang is a Professor of Economics at Rutgers University. He has published papers on development, migration and public policy, public choice, political economy and labor economics in leading economics journals. He was one of the founding editors of the Review of Development Economics, and is an Associate Editor/Editorial Board member of several journals, including the Journal of Population Economics. He is a Research Fellow at IZA and several other academic institutes.
 
Keller Graduate School of Management cordially invites all students, faculty, administration and staff to this special event. 

Refreshments will be served.
