- Title
Wage flexibility in Britain: some micro and macro evidence.
- Authors
Schweitzer, Mark E.
- Abstract
The article presents a summary of the working paper "Wage flexibility in Britain: Some Micro and Macro Evidence," provided by Mark E. Schweitzer. As defined, wage flexibility is either a micro or macroeconomic concept. It is often cited as the main reason behind weaker inflationary pressures in the 1990s. To illustrate wage rigidities, the author uses the British New Earnings Survey data from 1975-2000. The data are analyzed whether the behavior of either measure of flexibility has shifted.
