Abstract

Wage mobility is the change of earnigns of an employed person that takes place in time. This change can be nominal or real - measured on a money scale, or relative - represented by a change in the relative position of a person s wages measured on a wage distribution scale. Wage mobility is an interisting issue for at least two reasons. Firstly, it plays a dominant role in moulding the wage distribution and wage inequality at a gven moment in time. Secondly, as a dynamic component of wage inequality, it can have a more significant impact on motivation and satisf action than wage inequality itself.
