Abstract

To link to full-text access for this article, visit this link: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jpubeco.2006.09.010 Byline: Scott Adams Keywords: Health insurance; Regulation; Wages Abstract: Pure community rating, which was enacted to improve access to health insurance in New York's small group market in 1993, prevents carriers from charging different premiums based on the ages of a firm's workers. If small firms were adjusting compensation packages prior to reform to offset higher health care costs of older workers, then community rating could lead to greater relative wages for older workers post reform and not necessarily induce adverse selection that results in changes in who is insured. I present evidence showing that relative wages of older workers in small firms increased in comparison with other states and with large firms within New York following reform.

Abstract

To link to full-text access for this article, visit this link: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jue.2005.04.002 Byline: Scott Adams (a), David Neumark (b) Abstract: Living wage campaigns have succeeded in about 100 jurisdictions in the United States but have also been unsuccessful in numerous cities. These unsuccessful campaigns provide a better control group or counterfactual for estimating the effects of living wage laws than the broader set of all cities without a law, and also permit the separate estimation of the effects of living wage laws and living wage campaigns. We find that living wage laws raise wages of low-wage workers but reduce employment among the least-skilled, especially when the laws cover business assistance recipients or are accompanied by similar laws in nearby cities.

Abstract

The author uses data from the 1988-2000 Annual Demographic Files of the Current Population Survey to revisit the question of whether job lock exists. Limiting the sample to males with employer-provided health insurance, it is tested whether the lack of a potential source of alternative coverage through the individual's spouse affects his or her job mobility. The author controls for both characteristics of the respondent and spouse, as well as the attributes of their jobs. Although evidence produced by other researchers using similar methodology has been mixed, this article presents significant evidence that employer-provided health insurance lowers mobility. (JEL J320, J620), I. INTRODUCTION The fact that employers are the primary providers of health insurance in the United States raises at least two concerns. First, people who lose their jobs may also [...]

Abstract

I test whether older individuals who report that their firms favor younger workers in promotion decisions are harmed by this often-cited discriminatory practice. Using the Health and Retirement Study, I determine whether such workers are more likely to experience lower wage growth, to separate from their employer, or to retire early, in comparison with workers with similar demographic and job characteristics. The evidence is consistent with lower wage growth and a greater likelihood of early retirement. Much of the effect, however, is likely to stem from a high correlation between delayed-payment contracts and promotion practices., I. Introduction In terms of wages and unemployment rates, older individuals compare favorably to younger individuals. For example, in July 2000, the median hourly wage for men aged 25-49 years [...]
