Abstract:
The degree of mobility in wages is conceived as an important indicator to gauge flexibility and freedom in the labour market and equality of opportunity in a society. This paper aims to encompass evidence on wage distribution and inequality with micro-mobility measures for the Indian labour market, by applying pseudo-panel methodology. This study presents the pseudo panel method to study and examine crucial aspect of individual earning dynamics using repeated cross-sectional datasets of NSSO employment and unemployment rounds since last two decades (1993-94 to 2011-12).
