The major factor in determining wage spread was whether the employees were white- or blue-collar workers. Smaller spreads were found in blue-collar jobs largely because union-negotiated pay scales tend to offer single rather than multiple pay rates for a given occupation. White-collar jobs had an average wage spread of about 30 percent, which is more than twice as wide as the average in skilled blue-collar jobs. Wage spreads in manufacturing industries are usually narrower than in nonmanufacturing industries. White-collar jobs show a wider spread in large establishments. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
