This aim of the research is to test whether the decreasing productivity of the workers results in decreasing of the nominal wage of the production worker under the supervisor. Statistical data of BPS was used in this research. The research data is consist of the nominal base and over time wage of the production worker under the supervisor, productivity of workers, and capital intensity. Furthermore, this research used regression analysis with OLS estimation method. This regression analysis was based on the dynamic panel data model. Finally, this study used redundant coefficient test to reduce several insignificant regression parameters in order to get a parsimony model. The results of the research as follow: (1). the decreasing productivity of the workers does not result in decreasing the nominal base wages of the production workers under the supervisor. (2). the decreasing productivity of the workers results in decreasing of the over time wages of the production workers under the supervisor.

The problem of labor productivity in Indonesia is a regional and sectoral inequality. To know the time required to remove inequality, can be measured by the level of convergence of labor productivity. The research would analyze the rate of sectoral labor productivity convergence among provinces in Indonesia spatially and identify the determinant factors of labor productivity. The analytical methods used is spatial dinamic panel data with Spatially Corrected Blundell-Bond (SCBB) estimation method. The results show that there are spatially sectoral labor productivity convergence. Primary sector takes the longest half-life convergence of 7-8 years, while secondary takes 1-2 years and tertiary sector takes 3-4 years. Furthermore, the Gross Capital Fixed Formation, Mean Years of Schooling, and real wage sectoral are significantly have positive affect to the labor productivity while Life Expectancy is significantly have negative affect to labor productivity.Keywords : convergence, spatial analysis, labor productivity

Purpose This paper aims to investigate the determinants of international bilateral tourism demand in countries of Southern Common Market (specifically, Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay) and Chile. Design/methodology/approach In this study, an augmented gravity model is used to investigate the determinants of international bilateral tourism demand in countries of Southern Common Market. The novel aspect of the analysis is that three models of tourism are defined, depending on the spatial distribution of tourist arrivals and departures. An intra-regional model, an extra-regional model and a general model are estimated using a dynamic panel data model. Findings The results indicate that traditional gravity variables are significant in explaining bilateral inbound arrivals, but the characteristics and the behavior of the demand of tourism vary on whether the country belongs to the sub-regional bloc. Research limitations/implications The differences found in this paper might have some impacts on the desired design and direction of the touristic policies of each country. Originality/value This study analyzes the determinants of international tourism demand through different bilateral relationships, differentiating between intra- and extra-block tourisms.
