dc.description.abstractPart of the project “Labour Market Regulations in China: Minimum Wage Policy,” this presentation draws conclusions from the study indicating that the process is largely driven by political competition of local governments at city and provincial level, in response to the appeal of the central government for raising wage share in national income. However, there are few studies about effects of minimum wages on skills, prices and profits. Controversial findings of effects on wage and income increase, working hours, and inequality are provided and discussed. Minimum wages are generally set at a low level by regional governments with no strong incentive to implement any, and no enforcement.en
