| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is testing nutrition-based efficiency wage model, introducing a new key variable, "in-kind wages" which is common in developing countries. Our new approach proposed by the theoretical analysis shows new empirical evidence using quantile regression technique. Data employed in our study are micro data of labor statistics and small-scale enterprise statistics collected by Indonesian statistical office. Analysis found that in-kind wages play an important role in nutrition-based efficiency wage model as our study predicted.
