Abstract

Importance of Long Distance Commuting (LDC) has increased as result of the continuos reduction of transport costs. This paper formalizes the relationship between LDC and wage through a job search model where a commuting time variable is included. The paper proposes that LDC should be compensated in wage, be increased in distance, and the regions with more commuters? reception should pay higher premium wage. The results suggest a premium in 19% for LDC; but it's depending of the workplace of each commuter, where it reception pay higher premium wage.
