The labour market, income per capita and welfare in Europe: An overview of the last two decades
PWT10 eta EU-SILC datu-baseak erabiliz, 2004-2019 aldian, Europako 30 herrialdetako per capita errentaren, soldata-desberdintasunaren eta ongizatearen arteko erlazioa aztertzen dugu. Lan-produktibitateari dagokionez, Europako herrialdeen artean dibergentzia handia dagoela ikusi dugu, baina aldagai hori oso lotuta dago (modu positiboan) Europako ekonomien batez besteko soldatarekin. Espainiak soldata-desberdintasunaren igoerarik handienetako bat izan du azken bi hamarkadetan, eta lan-merkatuaren funtzionamendua ez da bilakaera hori epe laburrean azaltzen duen faktore bakarra. Biztanle bakoitzeko errenta handiena duten herrialdeak ongizatea gehien handitu dutenak dira; Espainian, berriz, aldagai hori ia ez da aldatu. Batez besteko soldataren irabaziak soldata-desberdintasuna handitzeak konpentsatu ditu. Gure auzokide garatuenen lan-produktibitatearen zifretatik urrun egoteaz gain, soldata-desberdintasuna bateratzeari lotuta arazo bat dugu.
Using PWT10 and EU-SILC, we analyse the relationship between income per capita, wage inequality and welfare for 30 European countries over the period 2004-2019. We found that there is a great divergence between European countries in terms of labour productivity, although this variable is strongly (positively) related to the average salary of the different European economies. Spain has experienced one of the largest increases in wage inequality in the last two decades, and the functioning of the labour market is not the only factor that explains this evolution in the short term. The countries with the highest income per capita have increased their well-being the most, while in Spain this variable has barely changed. Gains in the mean wage have been offset by rising wage inequality. In addition to being far from the labour productivity figures of our more developed neighbours, we have a convergence problem in wage inequality.
