The Impact Of The Overtime Premium On Employment And Hours In U.S. Industry, Ronald G. Ehrenberg
Ronald G. Ehrenberg
[Excerpt] This paper presents empirical estimates of the intra-industry cross-section relationship between annual overtime hours per man and the ratio of these quasi-fixed costs to the overtime wage rate. Estimates are also made of the impact of a change in the overtime premium on employment and hours; these estimates have implications for policymakers concerned with the wisdom of increasing the overtime premium as a method of job creation.
