| Tiivistelmä: | This study presents a field experiment to assess the effect of own and peer wage variations on actual work effort (here as: w-e.) of employees with hourly wages. W-e. neither reacts to an increase of the own wage, nor to a positive or negative peer comparison. This result seems at odds with numerous laboratory experiments showing a clear own wage sensitivity on effort. Through an additional real-effort laboratory experiment it is shown that explicit cost and surplus information enabling an exact calculation of an employer's surplus from the work contract is a crucial prerequisite for a positive wage-effort relation. |
