Abstract
This volume is based on a government survey - the New Earnings Survey - and should become a standard reference book for anyone actively engaged in or studying wage determination. The New Earnings Survey is probably the most detailed and comprehensive series of statistics on wages produced by any government but has been little used outside government circles due to restrictions on access, and the very size of the survey has inhibited researchers. The authors have had access to the survey and, with a team of researchers, have organized the data in a structure which will determine any future analysis and have interpreted the data in a series of thematic chapters. Areas covered include: movements in the dispersion of pay; movements in manual skills differentials; white collar pay movements; national collective agreements; incentive pay and payment schemes; and the institutional role in pay determination.
