Abstract
The article attempts to determine the optimal wage differentiation in Poland’s 16 regions from 1999 to 2015. In our study, optimality is a maximum level of total factor productivity. Wage differentiation was measured by the Gini coefficient. Two hypotheses were tested and confirmed: (1) the relationship between wage differentiation and TFP is described by the parabolic function with a maximum; (2) parabolic functions differ from each other, with different optimal dif-ferentiations
