Abstract

The present paper seeks to analyse regional and industry wage differentials in Spain. Differences in observed industry and regional earnings are to be expected, whenever the considered individuals differ whith respect to their human capital characteristics. However, the paper shows, using data from Encuesta de Estructura Salarial (Structure of Earnings Survey), referring to 1995, that while controlling for these characteristics reduces the magnitude of derived industry-regional wage premia, they are insufficient to eliminate altogether. Accordingly, it is provided an examination of the role played by a variety of factors that economic theory suggest influence the wage structure. The conclusions stress on the industry-regional labour productivity to explain the earnings premia. Classification-JEL: J24, J31, L60, R10
