Abstract

In this paper we analyze the effect of minimum wage change on selected labour market indicators such as duration of employment, hours worked, unemployment by education or profession or long-term unemployment. Our research is based on Eurostat and OECD data for V4 countries. The hypothesis discussed is whether the effect of minimum wage increase is positive or negative and we discuss the issue of economic regulation more generally. The output values of the regressions coefficients of all the V4 countries showed that the effects are more positive than negative. Mapping the overall intensity of effects of the minimum wage on selected indicator of the labour market in the Czech Republic and Hungary indicated a low sensitivity. The effects were very weak in Slovakia and Poland. The results of the analysis complied with the results of the domestic and international research in 13 cases and the results were different in 6 cases. Slightly more often they confirmed more positive effects of the minimum wage on selected indicators of the labour market than negative effects.
劳动力市场监管中最低工资工具的模糊效应——对V4国家的关键研究
在本文中,我们分析了最低工资变化对选定的劳动力市场指标的影响,如就业时间、工作时间、教育或职业失业率或长期失业率。我们的研究基于欧盟统计局和经合组织V4国家的数据。讨论的假设是最低工资上调的影响是积极的还是消极的,我们更广泛地讨论了经济监管问题。所有V4国家的回归系数的输出值表明,这种影响是积极的,而不是消极的。绘制最低工资对捷克共和国和匈牙利劳动力市场选定指标影响的总体强度图表明敏感性较低。斯洛伐克和波兰的影响非常微弱。13例分析结果与国内外研究结果一致,6例分析结果不一致。略为常见的情况是,他们确认最低工资对劳动力市场选定指标的积极影响大于负面影响。
