Abstract

The stochastic frontier technique is used in this paper to measure the differences that arise between the potential wage, the one that should be obtained for an individual with particular socioeconomic cha¬racteristics given his/her investment in human capital, and the wage that actually s/he has in the labor market. The data set comes from the European Community Household Panel for the period 1995-2001. The results show that geographical mobility get men closer to their potential wage whereas for women job mobility is mainly due to household factors or personal reasons and it contributes to move them away from their potential wage.

四个欧洲国家男女的地理流动性和工资效率

本文使用随机前沿技术来衡量潜在工资(具有特定社会经济特征的个人在人力资本投资下应该获得的工资)与他/她在劳动力市场上实际拥有的工资之间的差异。这套数据来自1995年至2001年期间的欧洲共同体家庭小组。结果表明，地域流动性使男性更接近他们的潜在工资，而对于女性来说，工作流动性主要是由于家庭因素或个人原因，这有助于使她们远离他们的潜在工资。
