In 2007, the Korean government undertook a labor reform prohibiting undue discriminatory treatment against fixed-term, part-time, and dispatched workers in an attempt to address income inequality arising from labor market duality. By exploiting a gradual introduction of the anti-discrimination law by firm size, I identify the treatment effects of the anti-discrimination law on gaps in wage and non-wage benefits between regular and non-regular workers, taking a difference-indifferences approach, a quasi-experimental design. My findings suggest that the imposition of the anti-discrimination law has significantly narrowed gaps in labor conditions between regular and non-regular workers. Labor conditions of targeted nonregular workers did not improve at the expense of those of non-targeted non-regular workers. Nevertheless, non-targeted non-regular workers being treated in a less favorable way raises another concern about the possibility of overusing non-targeted non-regular workers.30 p.application/pdfengcc-by-nc-nd, (c) Choi, 2016http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/Discriminació en el treballMercat de treballSalarisCoreaDiscrimination in employmentLabor marketWagesKoreainfo:eu-repo/semantics/workingPaper2016-03-02info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
