Workforce mobility against the background of labour market duality theory – the example of selected OECD countries

Abstrakt

The paper aims to present an empirical study of labour market segmentation (LMS) hypothesis. According to the dual labour market theory jobs can be divided into two groups: primary and secondary jobs, with enter barriers into the first one. The primary jobs are usually described with relative high wages, whereas secondary jobs provide lower level of wages. In this paper we first examine the main sectors (according to the ISIC rev. 3) in selected OECD countries, which are divided into two segments, regarding the level of average sectoral wages. Then, the intersectoral labour mobility within the secondary segment and the labour mobility from the secondary segment to the primary segment in every analysed country is measured for the years 1994-2008. A Markov chain analysis based on aggregate data is used to identify the differences in the workforce mobility and confirmed the existence of barriers on the segmented labour market. According to the main purpose of this paper the divided nature of labour market is verified. Our research show that in case of Finland, Greece, Spain, Canada, Portugal and United Kingdom, the divisions in labour market are substantial. On account of the significant differences in workforce mobility within and outside the secondary segment, we can indicate a typical duality in labour market in these countries.
