Abstract:
Wage formation is a highly sensitive affair. It lies at the heart of a power play between workers and employers, who are always jockeying for position. Wages play an important role in the broader economy from both efficiency and equity perspectives.
As part of a broader labour market review, this paper considers the state of knowledge on wage determination in South Africa (SA).
