dc.description.abstract | Firstly, this paper examines the relative differences in observed hours of work, consumption (income) and welfare among individuals and households in Peru in 1985-1986. For this purpose a Gini-related measure of inequality is employed. Secondly, the paper reports the results of some basic policy simulations which are based on a structural micro-econometric model. The main purpose has been to examine the impact of changes in wage rates and in length of schooling, respectively, on distributions of hours of work, consumption and welfare. | en_US |
