As in Blanchflower and Oswald (1994), the estimated unemployment elasticity of pay across regions is approximately - 0.1. Workers in low unemployment regions earn more pay indicating the presence of profit sharing. Workers in more restructured regions are shown to receive higher premiums in pay indicating compensation for exposure to risk during restructuring.4304 bytesapplication/pdfenWage determinationUnemploymentRestructuringPolish RegionsJ6L0O5Labor market--PolandLabor market--Regional disparitiesIndustrial organization--PolandWorking Paperhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/1.0/
