Abstract

We provide a comparative cross-country analysis of individual age-wage proles for different health statuses. Using semi-parametric regressions run on EU-SILC data we aim at answering the question on the relationship b etween individual health and pro ductivity and its changes in the life cycle, separating the impact of health from traditional wage determinants. We nd that although the agepro ductivity proles vary much among countries, these dierences are not inuenced by the self-p erceived health status.
