Decomposing the between-firm employment earnings dispersion in the Canadian business sector : the role of firm characteristics / by Douwere Grekou, Wulong Gu and Beiling Yan. : CS11-0019/443E-PDF
"This paper examines the role of firm characteristics in accounting for the between-firm average employment earnings dispersion in the Canadian business sector between 2002 and 2015. It uses two decomposition methods to analyze the level of and changes in the between-firm average employment earnings dispersion by firm characteristics, such as productivity, globalization status (importing, exporting, foreign ownership), technology intensity, firm size, firm age, industry and geographic region. The analysis shows that the between-firm average employment earnings dispersion has been declining at an annual rate of -0.09%, as measured by the mean logarithmic deviation dispersion index. The converging earnings between frontier and non-frontier firms account for about one-third of the aggregate decline. Converging earnings between industrial sectors and geographical regions are other important factors, contributing 9% and 7%,respectively, to the aggregate decline"--Abstract.
