ETUI-REHS recently published a working paper on wage differentials across sectors in Eastern and Western European countries. The paper's findings show large wage differentials between workers employed in different sectors and that high- and low-wage industries are fairly similar in Eastern and Western European countries. The results also suggest that wage differentials between sectors are much bigger in countries where wage bargaining is weakly coordinated and mostly organised at the firm or establishment level.
