Public and Private Sector Labour Markets
This chapter focuses on the differences between public and private sector labour markets in terms of employment and wages, considering regional and occupational variations. It states that the claims that public servants are overpaid, which led to the ‘sector envy’, are misleading. The chapter also argues that pay settlements in both public and private sectors average out over the last decade despite recent decrease in private sector earnings.
More or Less Unequal? Evidence on the Pay of Men and Women from the British Birth Cohort Studies
Gender pay differences are not merely a problem for women returning to work and part‐time employees, but also for those in full‐time, continuous careers. In data from cohort studies, the gender wage gap for full‐time workers in their early thirties fell between 1978 and 2000.

This paper estimates various models of the effect of computer use on earnings using recent NCDS data. The cross‐section estimates are large and significant while the standard fixed effects estimates are small or insignificant. The panel estimates change considerably once we allow the coefficients to differ across individuals. Conditional on assumptions about when individuals use computers, conventional panel estimates may not identify the crucial…

Graduate earnings after six years: Who are the winners
This paper investigates which factors are important in determining graduate salaries six years after graduation. The roles of degree class and subject area, postgraduate study, gender, school and family background and other socio-economic factors in determining earnings are investigated using a regression study of earnings for a cohort of 1980 graduates. The relative importance of these factors is also assessed. The results suggest that the most …
