企业内部工资差距对产品质量的影响

The Impact of Wage Gap Inside Enterprises on Product Quality

本文采用中国企业-员工匹配调查数据,应用锦标赛理论实证研究模型,通过实证数据验证企业内部工资收入差距对产品质量的影响,从而为企业设定合理的工资差距提供参考,并以此提升企业产品质量。本文发现企业工资差距与企业产品质量存在倒"U"型曲线关系:即企业产品质量随着工资差距的扩大,呈现先上升后下降的趋势。更进一步以企业工资是否集体协商做分组,回归结果表明企业内部工资差距对企业产品质量的影响是一种因果性效应。因此,企业应当将员工工资差距维持在合理范围内,从而进一步提升企业产品质量。

This paper uses the CEES data, applies the tournament theory model and examines the effect of internal wage gap on the quality of products by empirical data, so as to provide reference for enterprises to set reasonable wage gap basis, and enhance product quality. It is found that the relation between wage gap and product quality shows an inverted U- shape, which means with the expansion of the wage gap, the quality of their products shows a downward trend after the first rise. Grouping by whether the wage is collective bargained, empirical regressions show the relation between wage gap and product quality is a causal effect. Therefore, enterprises should maintain employee wage gap within reasonable limits to enhance product quality.
