Résumé anglais Is profit-sharing an incentive to work more? by Patrick Artus, François Legendre, Pierre Morin. This article presents three empirical studies that attempt to assess the impact of profit-sharing on labor productivity. An especially detailed account is given of the study conducted on French data. This study conducted on French data is more completely accounted for. The studies do not examine profit-sharing — as, for example, M. Weitzman does — from a macroeconomic point of view as an activity stabilizer. Rather, profit-sharing is analyzed microeconomically as a work incentive for employees. This approach fits in with theories of the efficiency wage. In particular, the article discusses the need for such collective incentives.
