IZA Discussion Paper No. 642 November 2002 ABSTRACT The Effect of Immigration on Wages in Three European Countries We extend the Altonji and Card (1991) framework for analysing the impact of immigrants on natives’ wages from two to three labour types and estimate reduced form wage equations for The Netherlands, United Kingdom and Norway. We find very small effects on natives’ wages and no dominant robust patterns of substitution and complementarity. Effects on wages of earlier immigrants are larger but less reliable. Further work should focus on these own effects.

We are also grateful to seminar participants at CPB The Hague, in particular our discussant Daniel van Vuuren for their comments. 1 Introduction Since the paper of Grossman (1982), several studies have been conducted on the impact of immigration on the host country labour market. Most of these studies concern traditional immigration countries like the United States, Canada and Australia (see surveys: Friedberg and Hunt, 1995; Borjas, 1994). In Europe, the number of studies is still limited, although increasing in the last few years (Winkelmann and Zimmermann, 1993; De New and Zimmermann, 1994; Gang and Rivera-Batiz, 1994; Pischke and Velling, 1997; Venturini, 1999). In this paper, we study the effect of immigration on natives’ wages in three European countries. In the next section, we extend the Altonji-Card (1991) model from two to three production factors, to obtain a richer model for predicting wage effects. We then present estimates for The Netherlands, the United Kingdom and Norway and we conclude by comparing and assessing the results from these three countries. The countries were selected for data availability and for interesting contrasts in their immigrant population, as we spell out in the concluding section. 2 A System of Connected Local Labour Markets Altonji and Card (1991) analyse the effect of immigration with a partial equilibrium model for local labour markets. A local economy is assumed to produce one good that is consumed both locally and exported to other cities and to import another good. The quantity Y of the local good is produced by a single competitive industry with constant returns to scale using labour inputs and other inputs with exogenously fixed prices. Extending the two-factor model of Altonji and Card, we consider low, medium and high skilled labour as production factors in local labour markets. The technology is characterised by constant returns to scale. The total labour force, L, consists of low skilled LU , medium or ‘centrally’ skilled, LC and high skilled, LH ; L LLLUCH. The respective proportions of low, medium and high skilled labour are ULLCLLHLLNU, NC , and NH, with UCHNN N1. In an initial equilibrium, the skill distribution is given as low skilled, U N , medium skilled CN and high skilled workers H N . Suppose that an immigrant flow of size I occurs: a fraction of immigrants, U I , is low skilled, CI , is medium skilled and the rest is high skilled workers, H I . The proportional changes in wage rates of each labour type must satisfy equality of wage-induced demand shifts and supply shifts due to immigration adjusted for skill composition and product demand composition: .UI I UUUUUUCCUHH/ logwww log log (1) ULN 0 .CI I C/ CUlogwww U CC C log C CH log H (2) CLN 0 3 .1UC I /II logww log log w (3) HHUUHCCHHHH 1 UCLNN0 where log wi is the log wage change for skill group i, ij is the elasticity of labour demand for skill group i with respect to the wage of group j, i indicates the elasticity of labour 1 supply of skill group i and i are adjustment coefficients , 0i 1, defined as YY Y UUCH1 1kkCH e , where NIII U 11 (4) YY UUCHINII1 YY Y CCUH1 1,kkUH e where NIII C 22 (5) YY CCUHINII1 YYY H 1HUC 1kkUC e , where NIII H 33 (6) YY HHUCINII1 Yi is consumption by skill group I, ij is the Marshall-Hicks labour demand elasticity ij j ij (7) Where j is the wage bill of group j relative to output value, ij is the partial elasticity of substitution2 of skill group i with respect to group j and is the demand elasticity of local output to its relative price p (a weighted average of elasticities of local consumers and export). The left-hand sides of equations (1)-(3) indicate the effective proportional increase in the supply of labour for the respective skill groups as a result of the immigration flow. The right-hand side gives the response of skill groups' local excess demand to the changes in the wage rates. If immigrants have the same skill composition as natives (kii 1, all ) and the export share Ye is zero, wages are unaffected by immigration, because of constant returns to scale. Only immigration with deviant skill composition has wage effects. If we reduce the model to homogeneous labour, where immigrant skill composition cannot differ from native skill composition, cross demand elasticities ij are zero and all output is exported (i 1), we have the standard comparative result of an isolated labour market 1 I log w (8) L 1 They are slightly rewritten from Altonji and Card’s specification to bring out the role of the export share in demand. 2 If there are only two inputs, the partial elasticity of substitution between two inputs is dual to the Hicksian partial elasticity of complementarity cc, 1 from the duality of production and cost functions.

  • Why Do We Ignore the Risk in Schooling Decisions?
    Why do we ignore the risk in schooling decisions? joop hartog universiteit van amsterdam ([email protected]) luis diaz-serrano CREIP - universitat rovira et virgili ([email protected]) Abstract While uncertainty abounds in almost any decision on investment in schooling, it is mostly ignored in research and virtually absent in labour economics text books. This paper documents the scope for risk, discusses the tough disentanglement of heterogeneity and risk, surveys the analytical models, laments the absence of a good workhorse model and points out the challenges worth tackling: document ex ante risk that investors face, develop a tractable and malleable analytical model and integrate the option of consumption smoothing in analytical and empirical work. Hedging labour market risk in the stock market can be safely ignored. First draft, November 29 2013 This paper builds on Joop Hartog and Luis Diaz-Serrano (2014), Details of claims and statements made in this paper can be found there. The authors would like to acknowledge the financial support of the Spanish Ministry of Education (grant number ECO2010-20829). 1 1. Introduction Schooling decisions are drenched in uncertainty like fish swimming in water, but textbook treatment of human capital theory does not reflect this. With the exception of Yoram Weiss’ chapter in the Handbook of Labor Economics, introductory and even advanced labour economics textbooks do not pay attention to the obvious uncertainty that surrounds investment in schooling. Abilities, tastes, requirements of the curriculum, graduation, employment, job content, financial rewards are all inherently uncertain when decisions on school careers have to be made. School admission boards have to select students without fully knowing talent and drive, policy preferences for general over vocational curricula are motivated by supposedly better insurance against the vaguaries of the labour market, but empirical evidence is barely available.

  • The Supply Side of the Race Between Demand and Supply: Policies to Foster Skill in the Modern Economy**
    DE ECONOMIST 151, NO. 1, 2003 THE SUPPLY SIDE OF THE RACE BETWEEN DEMAND AND SUPPLY: POLICIES TO FOSTER SKILL IN THE MODERN ECONOMY** BY BY JAMES J. HECKMAN* Summary In his celebrated book on income inequality, Jan Tinbergen ͑1975͒ wrote about the race between de- mand and supply in determining the evolution of wages and inequality. The demand side of the re- cent labor market is well understood. Skill-biased technical change favors skilled workers in many different economic environments. The supply side is less well understood. In the Netherlands, until recently, the supply side was winning and the returns to education were declining or stagnant. The exact reasons for this phenomenon are not well understood. Recently, however, there is evidence that suggests that the returns to schooling are increasing and that demand is outstripping supply, as it has done in most developed countries around the world. This has produced rising wage inequality. Unless more active supply side measures are undertaken, this trend is likely to continue. This problem, joined with the persistent problem of immigrant assimilation and the growing role of immigrants in the Dutch economy, renews interest in the supply side of the labor market. This lecture examines the determi- nants of the supply of skills in the short run and the long run. It examines the roles of short- term credit constraints and long-term family factors in fostering or retarding skill accumulation. It summa- rizes the evidence on a number of policy proposals to foster skills including early childhood pro- grams, programs to alleviate short-term financial pressure, job training and second chance programs, and tax policies.

Joop Hartog and Hessel Oosterbeek§ University of Amsterdam, Department of Economics, Roetersstraat 11, 1018 WB Amsterdam, The Netherlands Abstract—We explore the effect of schooling on health, wealth and happiness for a cohort of Dutch individuals born around 1940. We also use observations on childhood IQ and family background. The most fortunate group is the group with a non-vocational intermediate level education: they score highest on health, wealth and happiness. We find that IQ affects health, but not wealth or happiness. Family background level increases wealth, but neither health nor happiness. With a father who worked indepen- dently, health, wealth and happiness are higher. Women are a miracle: compared with men, they are less wealthy, equally healthy but they are definitely happier.
