Ratio of female workers

• Calculation:

• We don’t have the actual number of

female workers, so we estimate from the sample of workers: number of women in the sample / number of workers in the sample within each firm.

• Need to use sampling weights!

• Worker vs. firm-level database

• Use worker-level data to calculate ratios

• Then switch to firm-level for the estimation

(9)

Dependent variable

• Sales revenue

• Value added (VA) = sales revenue – material costs

• Profit?

(10)

Controls

• Region, industry, ownership

• Age and education: ratios of other groups as controls

• Occupational composition of the workforce (also ratios)

• Endogeneity?

(11)

Results/interpretation

• Statistics: include statistics of the regression sample and variables (dependent and explanatory variables, calculated worker shares)

• Calculation of relative values:

• Production function (nonlinear):

• Linear approximation:

• Relation:

• Hypothesis tests

• Comparison to previous international results

Roma employment: Kertesi–Kézdi 2010 (BWP)

• There is rarely good data available on the labor market situation of the Roma

• Administrative data do not contain measures of ethnicity.

• Categorization of self is questionable (magyar or Roma, …)

• Goals:

• Evaluate the Roma/non-Roma employment differential

between 1993–2007, based on the best data available so far.

• Decompose the difference: what part is due to observable demographic, education, regional differences.

• Also calculate the wage differential and decompose it.

• Emphasize the importance of schooling as the main determinant

Summary – K&K 2010

• Roma employment has decreased significantly since the transition.

• By 1994, there was a roughly 40% difference between Roma and non-Roma employment.

• Since then, it continued to grow slowly.

• Similar for men and women

• Macroeconomic changes did not affect the differentials.

• Wage differential: roughly 1/3

• Selection bias

• Decomposition:

• Education explains roughly 1/3 of the difference

• The role of education is increasing, even without consideration of the quality of schools.

• For women, the number of children is a significant factor.
