Outline 1.Context 2.Data and Methods 3.The Earnings Distribution 4.Low Pay and the Earnings Distribution 5.The Characteristics of the Low Paid

1. Context Forthcoming NERI working paper Income model and income data Limited understanding of earnings (of all types)

2. Data and Methods CSO SILC 2013 (released January 2015) o Sample of 4,922 households and 12,663 individuals o Detailed income data (direct, gross, disposable) o Income data cross checked with tax and welfare records o Detailed socio-economic characteristics o Weights for non-response etc o Never perfect, but… o Earnings: 4,449 earners (3,825 employees and 654 Self Employed)

3. The Earnings Distribution. Sources of earnings (17yrs+) o Employee cash and non-cash income o Self employment income (profit)

4. Low Pay & the Earnings Dist Looking at hourly earnings data for employees Data: o PES = at work and who are employees o gross monthly earnings & no. of hours usually worked o main job Three thresholds: o Minimum wage of €8.65 per hour (2013) o Living Wage of €11.45 per hour (2014) o Low Pay Threshold €12.20 per hour (2010)

Approximately: 345,000 employees below € ,000 employees below €12.20

Who are the low paid? o Of all those who are low paid: 60% women 34% aged 18-29; 28% 30-39yrs; 20% 40-49yrs… 25% in wholesale and retail sector 17% in accommodation and food sector 44% work 35hrs+ ; 25% work less than 20hrs 84% permanent workers 50%/50% split across full-time and part-time

Who is most likely to be low paid? o Of all employees who are: male 25% are low paid; female 34% aged = 60%; 60yrs+ = 32% Sectors: o Agri, forestry, fishing = 74% o Accommodation and Food = 68% o Admin and Support Services = 60% o Wholesale and retail = 51% low hours = 55% Temporary contract = 53% In poverty = 65% are low paid

5. The Characteristics of the Low Paid Using more formal multivariate methods to isolate the effects of various characteristics (if any) on the probability of being low paid o Logit with binary dependent variable where 1 = earning less than €12.20 per hour o Independent variables: low hours, part-time work, contract type, children in household, firm size Others: gender, age, completed education level, NACE sector, occupation, public/private sector, region

Overall, the model found that, when controlling for all other modelled variables: o low hours: no significant effect o part-time: - effect o temp contract: + effect o Children in hh: - effect o firm size of >10: - effect more in the paper…
