D. Mazumdar*

The trend in the share of wages is one of the factors affecting employment elasticity over a specified period of time. There are alternative ways of dealing with this trend in a decomposition equation. The method suggested in Mazumdar (2003) might be preferred because it yields additional information.

Key Words: Wage trends • Employment-wage trade-off • Labour market institutions • Comparative economic growth
