Abstract
This study uses Irish data from the Survey of Income and Living Conditions (SILC) to examine the factors underlying differences in the relative risk of being in receipt of the National Minimum Wage (NMW) among groups with relatively high rates of exposure to NMW employment, such as females, young people and non-Irish nationals. The results for Ireland are then compared with the UK. The study attempts to identify the factors driving a higher propensity of minimum wage employment among specific risk groups. The research is interested in understanding the degree to which the likelihood of minimum wage employment is driven by factors such as personal characteristics (like education and experience), job conditions within particular occupations or factors related to household composition and caring responsibilities.
