The Wage Wedge in France Since 1970,
by Yannick L'Horty, Renaud Méary and Nicolas Sobczak.
The wage wedge represents the deviation between the real cost of labour borne by the employer and the purchasing power of the wage net of all contributions. It depends on the weight of tax and social security contributions as well as on the terms of trade, which relate the consumer prices to which employees are sensitive to the producer prices heeded by employers. The wage wedge thus measured has increased sharply in France since the early 1970s. In 1970, the cost of labour represented approximately 1.9 times the wage net of all contributions. By 1993, this value had risen to 2.3. The increase is due essentially to the rise in social contributions. Although the growth of the wage wedge could help to explain the rise in unemployment, the development of its progressiveness would seem to have had a more ambiguous effect.
