Abstract

Das Bundesministerium für Arbeit und Soziales (BMAS) gab Ende 2010 für jede Branche mit einem allgemeinverbindlichen Mindestlohn Studien zu dessen Wirkungen auf Beschäftigung, Arbeitnehmerschutz und Wettbewerb in Auftrag. Die Studie zu den Wirkungen eines Mindestlohns in der Abfallwirtschaft entstand am ZEW. Der hiermit vorgelegte Endbericht beinhaltet die folgenden Berichtsteile. In Abschnitt 2 werden zunächst die theoretisch erwarteten Effekte auf die Zielgrößen sowie die verwendete Methodik dargestellt. Abschnitt 3 geht detaillierter auf die Umsetzung des Evaluationsauftrages im Hinblick auf die Datenlage, die Operationalisierung der Zielgrößen sowie die Auswahl potenzieller Kontrollbranchen ein. In Abschnitt 4 werden die institutionellen Rahmenbedingungen des Arbeits- und Gütermarktes der Abfallwirtschaft sowie der potenziellen Kontrollbranchen nachvollzogen. Im Anschluss daran erfolgt in Abschnitt 5 die Erläuterung der der Evaluation zugrundeliegenden Datenbasis. Hier wird neben der amtlichen Statistik, dem Mannheimer Unternehmenspanel vor allem das Befragungsinstrument und die Stichprobenauswahl der telefonischen Unternehmensbefragung vorgestellt. 25 Abschnitt 6 schließlich erstellt das Branchenbild, das zur Bildung der zentralen Hypothesen sowie als Entscheidungsgrundlage für die Auswahl der Kontrollbranche dient. In diesem Abschnitt geben quantitative Analysen auf Basis der amtlichen Statistik, dem Mannheimer Unternehmenspanel sowie der eigens erhobenen Befragungsdaten Aufschluss über Strukturmerkmale und die Entwicklung der Branche, vor allem auch im Vergleich zu den möglichen Kontrollbranchen. Der zweite Berichtsteil widmet sich in Abschnitt 7den kausalen Wirkungsanalysen auf Basis der erhobenen Unternehmensdaten. Hierzu wird zunächst das Ausmaß der Betroffenheit der Abfallwirtschaft von der Mindestlohneinführung analysiert sowie mögliche Strategien der Umgehung der Mindestlohnvorschriften nachvollzogen. Danach erfolgt die Analyse der kausalen Effekte der Mindestlohneinführung auf die Zielgrößen Beschäftigung, Arbeitnehmerschutz und Wettbewerb. Im Rahmen dieser Analyse soll vor allem auch die Bedeutung des Messfehlers der retrospektiv erhobenen Informationen für die Ergebnisse untersucht werden. Abschnitt 8 liefert eine Zusammenfassung und Schlussfolgerungen zu den Wirkungsanalysen. Abschnitt 9 schließt den Bericht mit einem Ausblick auf potenzielle zukünftige Evaluationsvorhaben ab.
