Firm Inequality and Individual Inequality
Inequality between workers in Britain, the US and many other countries has growth dramatically over the last 25 years. But has the inequality of productivity between firms grown over time? We will research whether the growth in individual inequality of wages is closely linked to firm inequalities of productivity and size. Our ambition is to characterise the changing inequality of firms' productivity in relation to the inequality between workers' wages. This of course links closely to work in the Labour and Education programs.
