| Abstract: | In this paper, a panel of about 6000 French establishments is used to test implications of the modern theory of dynamic monopsony or upward-sloping labour supply (hereafter as: u-s-lbr-s.) curves for average firm wages. Panel estimates provide strong evidence of a much larger long-run employer size-wage effect (ESWE) than found previously, while controlling for worker quality and compensating differentials with lagged wages, and for profitability (rent-sharing). Employment expansion also has a positive effect on wages, providing further evidence for u-s-lbr-s. |
