TY - JOUR T1 - Racial Earnings Differentials and Performance Pay JF - Journal of Human Resources JO - J Hum Resour SP - 435 LP - 452 DO - 10.3368/jhr.XL.2.435 VL - XL IS - 2 AU - John S.

Tests using the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth reveal no racial wage differential among male workers paid output-based pay while confirming a significant differential among those paid time rates. In addition, the racial wage differential among those receiving bonus pay, usually based on supervisory evaluations, tends to be larger than for those not receiving such bonuses. ER -
