Freeman and Casey Ichniowski, eds. Volume Publisher: University of Chicago Press Volume ISBN: 0-226-26166-2 Volume URL: http://www.nber.org/books/free88-1 Publication Date: 1988 Chapter Title: Are Public Sector Workers Paid More Than Their Alternative Wage? Evidence from Longitudinal Data and Job Queues Chapter Author: Alan B.

Evidence from Longitudinal Data and Job Queues Alan B. Krueger Several academic researchers have addressed the issue of whether federal government workers are paid more than comparable private sector workers. In general, these studies use cross-sectional data to estimate the differential in wages between federal and private sector workers, controlling for observed worker characteristics such as age and education. (Examples are Smith 1976, 1977 and Quinn 1979.) This literature typically finds that wages are 10-20 percent greater for federal workers than private sector workers, all else constant. In conflict with the findings of academic studies, the Bureau of Labor Statistics’s of- ficial wage comparability survey consistently finds that federal workers are paid less than private sector workers who perform similar jobs.’ Moreover, the government’s findings have been confirmed by an in- dependent study by Hay Associates (1984). Additional research is needed to resolve this conflict. When the focus turns to state and local governments, insignificant differences in pay are generally found between state and local govern- ment employees and private sector employees.

Johnson and Gary D. Libecap Volume Publisher: University of Chicago Press Volume ISBN: 0-226-40170-7 Volume URL: http://www.nber.org/books/john94-1 Publication Date: January 1994 Chapter Title: The Maturation of Federal Employees as an Interest Group Chapter Author: Ronald N. Johnson, Gary D. Libecap Chapter URL: http://www.nber.org/chapters/c8636 Chapter pages in book: (p. 96 - 125) 5 The Maturation of Federal Employees as an Interest Group 5.1 Introduction The legislative histories of major laws affecting the civil service system show that an active role in shaping them was played by early federal employee unions. The evidence offered in this chapter reveals that federal employee groups were able to utilize these earlier institutional changes to expand their influence and direct the subsequent course of the civil service system. Indeed, as an interest group, federal workers have done rather well. Even though fed- eral workers do not have the right to strike, most of the evidence indicates that the ‘compensation of federal employees generally exceeds the amount that they would earn either in the private sector or elsewhere in the public sector. Federal unions have achieved this favorable outcome, at least in part, be- cause they have been granted direct input into the design of the very institutions that determine their members’ compensation. By law, federal wages must be comparable with those in the private sector.

  • GGD-85-37 Options for Conducting a Pay Equity Study of Federal Pay
    J&c- P REPORT BY THE Comptroller General OF THE UNITEDSTATES Options For Conducting A Pay Equity Study Of Federal Pay And Classification Systems This report discusses ways to determine why female federal employees earn less than male federal employees. Two general approaches are discussed--economic analysis and job content. Economic analysis attempts to measure and explain existing wage differentials between men and women using characteristics of individuals, occupations, and the workplace. Such an analy- sis could indicate the extent to which factors such as education, work experience, and occupa- tion account for wage differences by sex in the federal government. The job content approach focuses on the characteristics of jobs in seeking to identify wage disparities. A job content study could provide a measure of the value of various federal jobs to the government and a correspond- ing comparison of the present grades or salaries for those jobs. GAO believes that each approach has merit. Accordingly, in GAO’s view, the most compre- hensive and effective means through which to conduct a pay equity study at the federal level would be to include both approaches. GAO/GGD-88-37 0313Ll MARCH 1,198s COMPTROLLER GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES WASHINGTON D.C. 20540 ~-217675 To Selected Chairpersons and Members of Congress: As you requested, this report discusses various options for conducting a pay equity study of federal pay and job classif>ca- tion systems. Our work to date has confirmed the complexity of the pay equity issue and the need for continued, careful planning if a federal study is to be done.
