Notes: Robust standard errors are reported between brackets. a Share of the workforce that: (i) has at least 10 years of tenure, and (ii) is younger than 30 and older than<br />
49 years, respectively. The share of women, blue-collar and part-time workers as well as the conditional dispersion in hourly wages are also included. b Sectorial<br />
affiliation (8 dummies), number of workers, age of the firm, and level of wage bargaining (1 dummy). c AR2 displays the test for second-order autocorrelation in the<br />
first-differenced errors. d First and third lags of explanatory variables are used as instruments in the GMM specification, excluding time dummies. e Fourth and fifth<br />
lags of explanatory variables are used as instruments in the GMM specification, excluding time dummies. f Second and third lags of explanatory variables are used as<br />
instruments in the GMM specification, excluding time dummies. g First and second lags of explanatory variables are used as instruments in the GMM specification,<br />
excluding time dummies. ***, **, * significant at the 1, 5 and 10% level, respectively.<br />
