| Abstract: | The authors develops a model to analyse the relation between wages and technological complexity, as characterized by the "O-ring" theory of production, the adoption of a relatively complex technology induces the employer to pay higher wages. It is argued that the model can explain increased within-group wage inequality as a consequence of increased technological heterogeneity among firms. |
