| Abstract: | Previous empirical studies on the effect of age on productivity and wages find contradicting results. Some studies find that
if workers grow older there is an increasing gap between productivity and wages, i.e. wages increase with age while productivity
does not or does not increase at the same pace. However, other studies find no evidence of such an age related pay-productivity
gap. We perform an analysis of the relationship between age, wage and productivity using a matched worker-firm panel dataset
from Dutch manufacturing covering the period 2000–2005. We find little evidence of an age related pay-productivity gap. |
