Self-enforcing wage contracts

Self-enforcing wage contracts

In the literature on agricultural incentive contracts, self-enforcing contracts are not yet analysed. A reason for this (except for methodological concerns) may be that agricultural contracts often are short-term, and self-enforcing contracts are based on long-term agreements. a) Risk-sharing contracts § Thomas, J., and T. Worrall. 1988. Self-Enforcing Wage Contracts. Review of Economic Studies 55: 541--53. § Beaudry, P., and J. DiNardo. 1991. The Effect of Implicit Contracts on the Movement of Wages Over the Business Cycle: Evidence from Micro Data. Journal of Political Economy 99: 665--688. The contract is self-enforcing, meaning that neither of the two parties would be willing to breach the implicit contract in absence of any external enforcement since both parties would be worse off otherwise. implicitly agreed upon a self-enforcing wage contract that seeks to stabilize the level of long-run labour earnings. Assuming the absence of non-labour incomes and savings on the side of workers, this means that the informal - but binding - agreement between the workers and the

when both can costlessly renege and buy or sell labour at a random spot market wage. A self-enforcing contract is one in which neither party ever has an incentive to renege. In the optimum self-enforcing contract, wages are sticky: they are less variable than spot market wages and positively serially correlated. They are updated by a simple rule: around each spot wage is A self-enforcing contract is one in which neither party ever has an incentive to renege. In the optimum self-enforcing contract, wages are sticky: they are less variable than spot market wages and positively serially correlated. They are updated by a simple rule: around each spot wage is a time invariant interval, and the contract wage changes each period by the smallest amount necessary to bring it into the current interval.
