Minimum Wage Regimes by Irene Dingeldey,Damian Grimshaw,Thorsten Schulten Pdf

This book goes beyond traditional minimum wage research to investigate the interplay between different country and sectoral institutional settings and actors’ strategies in the field of minimum wage policies. It asks which strategies and motives, namely free collective bargaining, fair pay and/or minimum income protection, are emphasised by social actors with respect to the regulation and adaptation of (statutory) minimum wages. Taking an actor-centered institutionalist approach, and employing cross-country comparative studies, sector studies and single country accounts of change, the book relates institutional and labour market settings, actors’ strategies and power resources with policy and practice outcomes. Looking at the key pay equity indicators of low wage development and women’s over-representation among the low paid, it illuminates our understandings about the importance of historical junctures, specific constellations of social actors, and sector- and country-specific actor strategies. Finally, it underlines the important role of social dialogue in shaping an effective minimum wage policy. This book will be of key interest to scholars, students and policy-makers and practitioners in industrial relations, international human resource management, labour studies, labour market policy, inequality studies, trade union studies, European politics and political economy.

The Fundamentals of Minimum Wage Fixing by François Eyraud,Catherine Saget Pdf

This manual draws on the ILO's comprehensive database containing the principal legal provisions and minimum wage fixing mechanisms in 100 countries. The minimum wage has had a long and turbulent history, and this study sheds light on its intricacies by providing a thorough overview of the institutions and practices in different countries. It outlines the main topics for debate concerning the effects of minimum wages on major social and economic variables such as employment, wage inequality, and poverty. The book considers the various procedures countries use for implementation, including the criteria employed to fix the minimum wage, and how they are linked to specific country objectives. It then measures the efficiency of the minimum wage, and focuses on its impact on employment as a major political issue. For the benefit of non-specialists, the validity of econometric models and their results are examined.

A Legal Minimum Wage (Classic Reprint) by John O'grady Pdf

Excerpt from A Legal Minimum Wage The present study of minimum wage legislation is an introduction to a larger study which the writer intends to make in the near future. Anything like a complete study of minimum wage legislation, at least from the standpoint of its positive economic effects, both direct and indirect, is impossible in the present state of our information. This is especially true as regards the effects of minimum wage legislation in England and America. Minimum wage legislation is largely in the experimental stage in both countries as yet. It is expected that the Report of the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics on minimum wage in Oregon, which is now in course of preparation, will give us precise data in regard to the economic effects of this form of legislation in that State. The writer regrets that he could not avail himself of the excellent report on Minimum Wage Legislation in the United States and Foreign Countries which was published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics as the present work was in the press. Limited as is our positive knowledge in regard to the effects of minimum wage legislation a clear presentation of such facts as we have cannot but prove helpful to those who are interested in this new social reform measure. If, as the writer believes minimum wage legislation is a useful remedy for the low wages of women and minor workers, much good will be done by educating the public as to its necessity and feasibility. This was the inspiring thought from the beginning to the end of this study. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Fight for $15 by David Rolf Pdf

“Rolf shows that raising the minimum wage to $15 is both just and necessary, lest the American dream of middle class prosperity turn into a nightmare” (David Cay Johnston, Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist). Combining history, economics, and commonsense political wisdom, The Fight for $15 makes a deeply informed case for a national fifteen-dollars-an-hour minimum wage as the only practical solution to reversing America’s decades-long slide toward becoming a low-wage nation. Drawing both on new scholarship and on his extensive practical experiences organizing workers and grappling with inequality across the United States, David Rolf, president of SEIU 775—which waged the successful Seattle campaign for a fifteen dollar minimum wage—offers an accessible explanation of “middle out” economics, an emerging popular economic theory that suggests that the origins of prosperity in capitalist economies lie with workers and consumers, not investors and employers. A blueprint for a different and hopeful American future, The Fight for $15 offers concrete tools, ideas, and inspiration for anyone interested in real change in our lifetimes. “The author’s plainspoken approach and stellar scholarship illuminate in-depth discussions about the deliberate policy decisions that began to decimate the middle class at the start of the 1980s as well as the insidious new ways in which big business continues to attack American workers today via stagnant wages, rampant subcontracting, unpredictable scheduling, and other detrimental practices associated with the so-called ‘share economy.’” —Kirkus Reviews “David Rolf has become the most successful advocate for raising wages in the twenty-first century.” —Andy Stern, senior fellow at Columbia University’s Richard Paul Richman Center for Business, Law, and Public Policy
