Abstract

This article uses China Employee-Employer Matching Survey data (CEES) to estimate the influence of social insurance contributions on workers’ wages. The results indicate firms may transfer the increased burden of social insurance onto their workers, and the negative effect of firms’ actual contribution rate is greater for poorly educated workers, migrant workers, non-manager group (manufacturing worker or clerks) and workers in the private sector, small firms, and labor-intensive firms than for their counterparts.
