TÜRKİYE’DE İŞ KAZALARI VE ÜCRET FARKLARI

Çalışma ve Sosyal Güvenlik Bakanlığı’nın iş kazaları ve Hanehalkı İşgücü Anketleri ücret verilerini kullanarak, Türkiye’deki imalat sanayi için telafi edici ücret farkları hipotezini 2013-2017 dönemi için test ediyoruz. İlk olarak, ölümcül ve ölümcül olmayan kaza riski için standart bir hedonik ücret denklemi tahmin ediyoruz. Standart telafi edici ücret farkları hipotezine uygun olarak, mesleki riskler ve ücret arasında pozitif bir ilişki buluyoruz, ancak endüstri etkilerini kontrol ettikten sonra ilişki önemsiz hale geliyor. Alternatif bir tahmin olarak, iki aşamalı bir prosedür kullanıyoruz. Riskin anlamsız ve negatif bir etkisinin yanı sıra, erkek nüfusu için kötü çalışma koşullarının düşük ücretlerle ilişkilendirilmesi bölünmüş bir işgücü piyasasına işaret etmektedir

OCCUPATIONAL INJURIES AND WAGE DIFFERENTIALS IN TURKEY

We test the compensating wage differentials hypothesis for the manufacturing industry in Turkeyusing occupational injury data from the Ministry of Labor and Social Security and wage data fromHousehold Labor Force Surveys, for the 2013-2017 period. First, we estimate a standard hedonic wageequation for the fatal and non-fatal injury risk. In conformity with the standard CWD hypothesis wefind a positive relation between occupational risks and wage however after controlling for industryeffects, the relation becomes insignificant. For an alternative estimation, we use a two-step procedure.Besides an insignificant and negative effect of risk, poor working conditions are associated with lowerwages for the male population, which suggest a segmented labor market.
