| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立中央大學 === 產業經濟研究所碩士在職專班 === 100 === Before 1995 except the second oil crisis period, the unemployment rate is less than 2% in Taiwan. However, the U.S. subprime mortgage crisis leads to the global financial crisis in 2008. This results in a sharp increase of unemployment rate, from 1.79% in 1995 to 5.85% in 2009. The tripled rate reflects how serious the unemployment problem is. As the rate increases, the ratio of dispatched labors to total labors increases to 5.16% in the first half of 2010. In general opinion, intuitively the wage of dispatched labors are relatively low.
In this research, based on OLS model, we control the personal characteristics and find that the wages of dispatched labors are less than those of officially employed labors by about 5.72% ~ 7.87% of official labors’ wage. The difference in wage between the groups decreases year by year. But after adopting Treatment Effects Model and considering self-selection variable, we find that the difference increases to 13.5% of the official labors’ wage.
Our findings may be considered in policy decisions which may improve the payment of dispatched labors, develop a sound labor market and increase public interest.
