摘要
The objective of the article is to analyze the wages share in income at the industry level and by technology sector in Mexico. A shift-share analysis is carried out and it is confirmed that the share of wages has decreased in the manufacturing sector. When developing a 2004-2019 data panel model, evidence is shown that the wage share has decreased in recent years due to factors related to technological progress and market power, which close to generating labor benefits, are decreasing the demand for employment. Capital per worker, and relative wages increase the wage share.
