Firm response to competitive shocks : evidence from China's minimum wage policy

Hau, Harald; Huang, Yi; Wang, Gewei - 2017

The large regional variation in minimum wage levels in the period 2002-08 in China implies that Chinese manufacturing firms experienced competitive shocks as a function of firm location and their low-wage employment share. We find that minimum wage hikes accelerate the input substitution from...
