Abstract: This paper investigates the determinants of employment choice of rural migrant workers across state-owned enterprises (SOEs) and various subtypes of non-state owned enterprises (non-SOEs) by taking into account of the unobservable characteristics that link the choice to migrate with the choice of employer. Using pooled cross-section data for 1995 and 2002, the results indicate that the decisions for migration and the choice of employment are related, suggesting that estimating employment choices without considering migration status leads to biased estimates. We find that both higher paid wages and broader pension benefits are major determinants of employment choice. Of these, pension benefits have a larger impact than high-level wages in increasing the employment probability for either type of enterprise.

Abstract: This study explores whether compensating wage differentials (CWDs) are still found for Australian workers using data from the Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) Survey, and risk data from Safe Work Australia. Our study finds evidence of CWDs for the risk of workplace fatalities that are smaller in magnitude compared to the estimates previously reported in the 1990s for Australia. We find limited evidence of CWDs for the risk of workplace non‐fatal injuries. Using panel data and a risk variable that varies by both the worker’s industry and occupation of employment, we find that Australian workers who face the mean level of fatality risk receive a CWD of between 0.13% and 0.44% for a unit increase in risk, depending on the model specification. These estimates correspond to a value of statistical life of $9.7 million and $34.9 million.
