Abstract

Magyarországon 2001-ben 57 százalékkal, 2002-ben újabb 25 százalékkal emelkedett a minimálbér. Az emelések hatásait vizsgáló tanulmányok a foglalkoztatási hatásokra koncentráltak, nem foglalkoztak az újraelosztási szempontokkal. Ebben a cikkben a KSH háztartási költségvetési felvételének adatai alapján azt vizsgáljuk, hogy az emelésben érintettek hol helyezkednek el a jövedelemeloszlásban, és helyzetük hogyan változott az emelés következtében. Főbb megállapításaink szerint az érintettek több mint fele a felső három jövedelmi ötödbe tartozik, vagyis nem lehet őket azonosítani a szegényekkel. Számításaink alapján ugyanakkor úgy tűnik, hogy többségüknek tényleg ekkora a keresete. Az emelés pozitívan érintette a minimálbéren alkalmazottakat, leginkább a szegényebb háztartásban élők helyzetét segítette. Az emelés vesztesei elsősorban a felső két ötödbe tartozók és az állásukat elvesztettek, ez utóbbiak között többségben vannak a szegények. Journal of Economic Literature (JEL) kód: D31, H23, J31.
