劳动市场制度对劳动供给的影响

The Impact of Labor Market Institution on Labor Supply

新古典经济学的效用劳动供给理论隐含假设:工人为实现效用最大化可自由选择工作时间,不受劳动市场制度的影响。本文提出四方面证据说明劳动市场制度对劳动供给有显著影响:工人的工作时间受产业平均工作时间的影响;相对女性,健康状况下降对男性工人的工作时间影响较少,而对劳动力参与影响较大,因为男性劳动市场对工人工作时间限制较大;时间的影子价格明显低于市场工资率有悖于工人对工作时间有完全的选择,实际工作时间和希望工作时间存在明显差距。

In the utility theory of labor supply of the neoclassic economic regime,for utility maximization workers have full freedom to choose their working hours.This paper argues that labor market institution improves the efficiency,but meanwhile exerts certain impact on workers in their choosing working hours.This paper provides four evidences. The traditional studies on labor supply focus on substitution effect and income effect of wage and non-wage income.But the results are biased because variable of institution is missing.
