The author extensively elaborates on the issue of the selection of employment, and reviews the available studies concerning the public-private wage gap in developed and developing countries, with a particular attention to the evolution of methodology. Furthermore, the author examines recent empirical studies on the public-sector wage premium. Contrary to former research, they have provided positive estimates of the average public-sector wage premium, with significant differences in terms of employee characteristics and local labour market conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003ePublic sector employment – Public sector wages – Public-private wage gap – Public-private wage differentials – Transition economies – Poland – Selection of public employment\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter Lang AG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51044388929879,"sku":"9783631719671","price":52.6,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9783631719671.jpg?v=1750961464","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/public-sector-wage-premium-in-poland-9783631719671","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
