| Tiivistelmä: | In this paper, a labour market model of monopsonistic competition is considered with taste-based discrimination (henceforth as: dscrn.) against minority workers in order to study the effect of equal pay legislation (as: legln.) on labour market inequality. When the taste for dscrn. is small or competition is weak, the policy removes job segregation and the wage gap completely. However, with a bigger taste for dscrn. or stronger competition, equal pay legln. leads to more job segregation, and sometimes minority workers end up earning less than before etc. |
