Abstract A number of recent empirical studies have found no evidence that the minimum wage adversely affects employment. Explanations for such non-negative estimates include new theoretical approaches, empirical identification and data issues. In this paper we examine the robustness of such estimates to concerns about bias arising from the simultaneous determination of employment and the minimum wage. We use a number of novel political variables as instruments to control for this source of endogeneity. We exploit the personal characteristics of the politicians voting on minimum wage bills, their voting behavior and their electoral process. Our main conclusion is that the weak relationship between minimum wages and employment does not appear to be driven by endogeneity.

The study examined the effect of employee participation and determination of minimum wage among selected primary schools in Osogbo, Osun State Nigeria. Descriptive survey research designs were adopted for the study. The population of the study was 145 staff of the selected primary schools while taro yamane formula was used to determine 106 as the sample size. Questionnaire was used to elicit information from the respondents and single linear regression was used to analyze the collected data with the help of statistical package for social sciences (SPSS). The findings of the study revealed that (i) The correlation coefficient (R) equals [r (98)=.43**, p<.01], indicates that the hypothesis two was not statistically supported by the result of the studies. (ii) The result showed further that age (β =.21, t=4.26, P<.01; Educational status (β =.15, t=3.64, P<.01), length of service (β =.19, t=4.03, P<.01) and job status (β =.22, t=4.63, P<.01) showed significantly independent prediction of minimum wage and employee participation among staff of selected primary schools. However, the result revealed that gender (β =.02, t=.04, p<.05) and marital status (β =.03, t=.06, p<.05), did not show significantly independent prediction of minimum wage and employee participation. The study concluded that workers participation has negative effect on employees' job satisfaction, productivity, commitment, which can create comparative advantage for an organization. The study recommends that having established a gap currently existing on employee participation and minimum wage, it helps in motivating employers and employees at different sectors to encourage a proper minimum wage scale.

<p>This article discusses the settlement of industrial relations disputes and termination of employment according to the applicable laws. Industrial relations disputes can be divided into two types: disputes over rights and disputes over interests. The relationship between workers and employers is a relationship that needs each other; workers need wages, employers benefit. However, in practice there are problems, so employers give Warning Letters I and II which are followed by Termination of Employment (PHK). The process of resolving this problem can be carried out through Bipartite, Mediation, or to the Industrial Relations Court. This paper is written with a normative juridical approach. The results show that the labor-employer problem is getting more complicated since the existence of the Omnibus Law on Job Creation, one of which contains the elimination of the city / district minimum wage (UMK) and replaced with the provincial minimum wage (UMP). The elimination of MSEs results in lower wages for workers. In fact, in the Manpower Act Number 13 of 2003, no worker may receive a wage below the minimum wage, because the determination of wages is based on the calculation of Living Needs.</p><p align="center">[]</p><p><em>Artikel ini membahas mengenai penyelesaian perselisihan hubungan industrial dan pemutusan hubungan kerja menurut perundang-undangan yang berlaku. Perselisihan hubungan industrial menurut jenisnya dapat dibagi menjadi dua: perselisihan hak dan perselisihan kepentingan.

Namun, dalam prakteknya terjadi permasalahan, sehingga pengusaha memberikan Surat Peringatan I dan II yang diikuti dengan Pemutusan Hubugan Kerja (PHK).

Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa permasalahan buruh-pengusaha semakin pelik seja hadirnya Undang-Undang Omnibus Law Cipta Lapangan Kerja yang salah satu isinya penghapusan upah minimum kota/kabupaten (UMK) dan diganti dengan upah minimum provinsi (UMP). Penghapusan UMK membuat upah pekerja lebih rendah. Padahal, dalam Undang-Undang Ketenagakerjaan Nomor 13 Tahun 2003 tak boleh ada pekerja yang mendapat upah di bawah upah minimum, karena penetapan upah didasarkan atas perhitungan Kebutuhan Layak Hidup.</em></p>

The establishment of UMP/UMK based on PP on wage is accomplished in a simple way without making survey on price. The minimum wage is determined on this PP is made by using the formula of minimum wage calculation in KHL in accordance with the productivity and economic growth. With this calculation, the rise of minimum wage could be estimated either by the employee / labor, or the entrepreneurs every year. Furthermore, it will give warranty to the entrepreneur in their entrepreneurship.  The presence of PP on wage, in fact, triggers many rejections from employee/labor because it is in contradictory with the Act of Employment which results disadvantages for employee/labor because the determination of UMK/UMP will be made without the Union of Labors but it will be decided directly by the governor without any recommendation from the regent/mayor. Keyword : Sensitivity Pp 78 Year 2015 On Wage
