This study merges data sets of the “Employee’s Movement Survey” and the “Employee’s Earnings Survey” from 1994 to 2010 to analyze the employees’ wage differentials and their sources between the Credit Department of Farmer’s and Fishermen’s Association (CDFFA) and commercial banks in Taiwan. The results show that the employees’ wages in CDFFA are substantially lower than those in domestic commercial banks and those in foreign banks. These wage gaps sustained even after the financial reform of CDFFA during the early 2000s. The Oaxaca’s decompositions further reveal that the endowment effect actually migrated the wage differentials. The adjusted wage differentials between CDFFA and commercial bank can mainly be attributed to underpayment of CDFFA employees, especially through human capital endowment and region characteristics. Given the same human capital and same region, CDFFA employees are paid lower prices than the prices in a nondiscrimination labor market. The underpayment of CDFFA employees continued through the financial reform. |
