Using Distribution Regression Difference‐in‐Differences to Evaluate the Effects of a Minimum Wage Introduction on the Distributions of Wages, Earnings, and Working Hours
用分布回归双重差分评估最低工资引入对工资、收入与工时分布的影响
ABSTRACT We estimate the causal effects of the introduction of the minimum wage in Germany on the distributions of hourly wages, monthly earnings, and hours worked, combining rich large‐scale data sources. We compare linear and non‐linear versions of distribution regression difference‐in‐differences (DR‐DiD) and also estimate bivariate DR‐DiD. We show that the introduction of the minimum wage in 2015 led to shifts in low hourly wages around the minimum wage threshold…
