Appendix for: Lifecycle Wage Growth and Heterogeneous Human Capital
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this appendix we expand upon the model presented in the text of the paper. First we generalize the model to allow for bargaining on the job rather than taking wages as exogenous. We then consider some special cases, first considering general human capital with search. We then show that firm and occupation/industry specific human capital can be considered special cases of our model. Finally, we generalize the model to allow for exogenous job separations.

Human Capital Accumulation of Salaried and Self-employed Workers
Both human capital accumulation and Lazear contracts can explain the raising wage of salary/wage worker through job experience or tenure. To distinguish between these two effects, Lazear and Moore (1984) used self-employed workers’ wage growth to partial out the effect of human capital accumulation from salary/wage workers’ wage growth. When the human capital accumulation behavior is identical ...

متن کاملMeasuring Human Capital and Its Effects on Wage Growth
Ever since Mincer, years of labour market experience were used to approximate individual’s general human capital, while years of seniority were used to approximate job-specific human capital. This specification is restrictive because it assumes that starting wages at a new job depend only on job market experience. In this paper, I investigate the effects of human capital on wage growth by using...
