Changes in earnings inequality are examined in this article through an eclectic approach allowing for differences in human capital earnings function by labour market segments. Several findings are of interest. The first are the components of earnings inequality changes, these being, in order of importance: changes in the within segments inequality, changes in the relative share of the informal sector segment, and changes in relative income between segments. Second, these changes are found to be the result of labour market liberalisation policies such as abolition of both minimum wages and labour turnover legislation in the formal sector, the promotion of self-employed activities in the informal sector, and, the selective mobility pattern between segments. |
