Abstract

The equity of a country is commonly assessed by examining the distribution of economic resources, access to higher education, and positions of societal influence relative to family socio-economic background. This study investigates the mechanisms perpetuating inequalities in the Italian labour market by analysing how family background influences educational attainment and subsequent labour market outcomes. Using the innovative AdSilc database, which integrates administrative and survey data on socio-economic backgrounds, we employed Generalized Path Analysis to explore complex relationships among exogenous, mediating, and endogenous variables. Incorporating the Heckman selection model addressed potential biases related to labour market participation. Additionally, we utilized generalized latent variable models for ordinal data to define family socio-economic status. Our findings underscore a pronounced intergenerational transmission of inequalities and a persistent wage gap across all cohorts analysed. Growing up in an advantaged family not only enhances educational attainment but also influences divergent labour market outcomes observed upon entry and after ten years of career progression.

意大利劳动力市场劣势的代际传递
一个国家的公平性通常是通过考察经济资源的分配、接受高等教育的机会以及相对于家庭社会经济背景的社会影响地位来评估的。本研究通过分析家庭背景如何影响教育程度和随后的劳动力市场结果,调查意大利劳动力市场不平等现象的长期存在机制。利用创新的 AdSilc 数据库(该数据库整合了有关社会经济背景的行政和调查数据),我们采用了广义路径分析来探索外生变量、中介变量和内生变量之间的复杂关系。结合赫克曼选择模型解决了与劳动力市场参与相关的潜在偏差。此外,我们还利用了针对序数数据的广义潜变量模型来定义家庭社会经济地位。我们的研究结果表明,在所分析的所有组群中,不平等现象代代相传,工资差距持续存在。在条件优越的家庭中长大不仅能提高教育程度,还能影响入职时和职业发展十年后劳动力市场的不同结果。

期刊介绍: Studies directed toward the more effective utilization of existing resources, e.g. mathematical programming models of health care delivery systems with relevance to more effective program design; systems analysis of fire outbreaks and its relevance to the location of fire stations; statistical analysis of the efficiency of a developing country economy or industry. Studies relating to the interaction of various segments of society and technology, e.g. the effects of government health policies on the utilization and design of hospital facilities; the relationship between housing density and the demands on public transportation or other service facilities: patterns and implications of urban development and air or water pollution. Studies devoted to the anticipations of and response to future needs for social, health and other human services, e.g. the relationship between industrial growth and the development of educational resources in affected areas; investigation of future demands for material and child health resources in a developing country; design of effective recycling in an urban setting.
