Abstract
We report the results of some standard wage regressions for The Nether lands and compare our results with those of the U.S.. There are marked differences in the magnitude of inter-industry wage differentials and in the effects of firm size, tenure and unemployment. These differenc es square quite well with other research suggesting that there is a mo notonic relationship between the degree of corporatism and the importa nce of non-competitive wage differentials.
