Labor market segmentation information


Labor market segmentation is the division of the labor market according to a principle such as occupation, geography and industry.[1]

One type of segmentation is to define groups "with little or no crossover capability", such that members of one segment cannot easily join another segment.[2] This can result in different segments, for example men and women, receiving different wages for the same work.[3] 19th-century Irish political economist John Elliott Cairnes referred to this phenomenon as that of "noncompeting groups".

A related concept is that of a dual labour market (DLM), that splits the aggregate labor market between a primary sector and a secondary sector.[1]
