摘要

本文研究了委内瑞拉移民对哥伦比亚劳动力市场的影响。利用接触的空间差异，我发现非正规部门（移民集中的地方）对本地工资产生了负面影响，而正规部门（许多工人受最低工资约束）的本地就业人数减少。为了解释这一现象，我建立了一个模型，在该模型中，企业会根据非正规部门工资降低的情况，用正规劳动力替代非正规劳动力。与模型的预测相一致，我发现正规就业的减少是由在生产中同时使用两种劳动力类型的小企业和赚取最低工资的工人造成的。

Immigration, wages, and employment under informal labor markets

This paper studies the labor market impacts of the Venezuelan immigration in Colombia. Exploiting spatial variation in exposure, I find a negative effect on native wages driven by the informal sector (where immigrants are concentrated) and a reduction in native employment in the formal sector (where the minimum wage binds for many workers). To explain this, I build a model in which a firm substitutes formal for informal labor in response to lower informal wages. Consistent with the model’s predictions, I document that the decrease in formal employment is driven by small firms that use both labor types in production and by workers earning the minimum wage.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Population Economics is an international quarterly that publishes original theoretical and applied research in all areas of population economics. Micro-level topics examine individual, household or family behavior, including household formation, marriage, divorce, fertility choices, education, labor supply, migration, health, risky behavior and aging. Macro-level investigations may address such issues as economic growth with exogenous or endogenous population evolution, population policy, savings and pensions, social security, housing, and health care. The journal also features research into economic approaches to human biology, the relationship between population dynamics and public choice, and the impact of population on the distribution of income and wealth. Lastly, readers will find papers dealing with policy issues and development problems that are relevant to population issues.The journal is published in collaboration with POP at UNU-MERIT, the Global Labor Organization (GLO) and the European Society for Population Economics (ESPE).Officially cited as: J Popul Econ Factor (RePEc): 13.576 (July 2018) Rank 69 of 2102 journals listed in RePEc
