Abstract

To meet this objective, output and labor cost elasticity of employment are calculated for skilled and unskilled workers, through panel data fixed effects methodology, using the Annual Manufacturing Survey the correction of errors was performed by feasible generalized least squares (FGLS) and panel-corrected standard errors (PCSE) method.
