The Structure and Determinants of Wage Relativities: Evidence from Australia

Drawing on the fields of labour economics and industrial relations, this work simultaneously applies human capital theory and institutional analysis, to an explanation of occupational and other wage differentials. This study contains a wealth of reference material on both the economic and normative determinants of wages. For the area of Australian wage determination, the book should prove a useful text for labour economists, industrial relations specialists, researchers and policy makers alike.
