Abstract

ABSTRACT The research determines the gap (Great Decoupling) between labour productivity and workers’ compensation in the two blocks of EU countries (Western versus Eastern). The division of countries into two groups provides a basis further to determine whether the previous socio-economic and political evolutionary development of these countries blocks still has a significant impact on the functional distribution of national income, on the extent to which labour productivity growth is transmitted to workers. The results are heterogeneous. In the sample of highly developed Western EU countries where higher levels of labour productivity, as well as high levels of technological development, lead to an increase in labour productivity to be followed by a lower increase in workers’ compensation. On the sample of Eastern EU countries, results indicate different relationships and the strength of causality between productivity and labour compensation. Central-East EU countries had a more positive relationship between real workers’ compensation and labour productivity, compared to the Southeast Europe (Balkan) countries where an increase in workers’ compensation causes a reduction in labour productivity. The results also offer a solid basis for understanding wage/income/productivity relationships d for creating policies for a more efficient distribution of national income.

工资反映增长生产力吗?比较欧洲东部和西部?
摘要本研究确定了两个欧盟国家(西方和东方)的劳动生产率和工人薪酬之间的差距(大脱钩)。将国家划分为两组提供了进一步的基础,以确定这些国家以前的社会经济和政治进化发展是否仍然对国民收入的功能分配产生重大影响,对劳动生产率增长传递给工人的程度产生重大影响。结果是不均匀的。在高度发达的西欧国家样本中,较高的劳动生产率水平和较高的技术发展水平导致劳动生产率的提高,随后工人薪酬的增加幅度较低。在东欧国家的样本中,结果表明生产力和劳动报酬之间存在不同的关系和因果关系强度。与东南欧(巴尔干)国家相比,中东欧国家的实际工人薪酬与劳动生产率之间的关系更为积极,东南欧国家的工人薪酬增加会导致劳动生产率下降。研究结果还为理解工资/收入/生产力关系以及制定更有效的国民收入分配政策提供了坚实的基础。
