dc.description.abstractWe investigate public-private pay determination using French, British and Italian microdata.While traditional methods focus on parametric methods to estimate the public sector pay gap,in this paper, we use both non-parametric (kernel) and quantile regression methods toanalyse the distribution of wages across sectors. We show that the public-private (hourly)wage differential is sensitive to the choice of quantile and that the pattern of premia varieswith both gender and skill. In all countries the public sector is found to pay more low skilledworkers with respect to the private sector, whilst the reverse is true for high skilled workers.The effects are more pronounced for females.en
