摘要

在本文中,我们考虑到工人工资结构的异质性,并利用包括工资结构基本调查在内的微观数据,研究了日本全职工人工资增长波动的驱动力。为此,我们首先根据利用工人及其工作企业的各种特征估算出的有限混合模型,将全职工人划分为工资结构不同的两个类别。我们发现,这两类工人分别对应于以往研究中所谓的 "内部劳动力市场 "和 "外部劳动力市场",前者是指劳动力在企业内部重新配置,工资遵循长期雇佣惯例下的年资制度;后者是指劳动力在企业间流动,工资主要由市场供求因素决定。接下来,我们分析经济因素对全职工人个人工资增长率的影响。我们发现,在内部劳动力市场中,行业和企业规模层面的劳动力市场状况以及宏观层面的产出缺口都没有影响近几年的工资增长率,至少在 2021 年之前是如此,而潜在增长率的提高则提高了工资增长率。相比之下,在全职工人的外部和整体劳动力市场上,劳动力市场条件和产出缺口的改善加快了工资增长率,即使在最近几年也是如此。

Heterogeneity and wage growth of full-time workers in Japan: An empirical analysis using micro data

In this paper we examine the driving forces of fluctuations in wage growth of full-time workers in Japan, taking into account the heterogeneity of wage structures among the workers and using micro data including those from the Basic Survey on Wage Structure. To this end, we first divide full-time workers into two classes with distinct wage structures, based on a finite mixture model estimated using various characteristics of the workers and the firms they work for. We find that the two classes correspond to what previous studies have called an "internal labor market," where labor is reallocated within firms and wages follow a seniority-based system under long-term employment practices, and an "external labor market," where labor moves across firms and wages are mainly determined by supply and demand factors in the market. We next analyze the effects of economic factors on individual full-time workers' wage growth rates. We show that in the internal labor market, neither labor market conditions at the industry and firm-size level nor the output gap at the macro level have influenced the wage growth rates in recent years at least until 2021, while higher potential growth has increased them. By contrast, in the external and the overall labor markets for full-time workers, improvements in labor market conditions and the output gap have accelerated the wage growth rates, even in recent years.
