Earning like a Prof: Academic rank wage premia in Ústí nad Labem, Czechia
Original language description
The article attempts to estimate the size of the wage premia fetched by ranked academicson the academic market in Ústí nad Labem, Czechia. We employed a large (anonymized)data set of contracts and wages of employees of a medium-sized regional public univer-sity in Ústí nad Labem. We used OLS regression in various specifications to determinethe wage premia of all educational levels (mainly full professors over associate profes-sors/docents and associate professors/docents over assistant professors/PhDs) while con-trolling for many attributes (of employees or contracts) possibly affecting wage levels.The local context regarding the topic of this article is discussed as well. The resultsgenerally confirm the intuition and show a clear pattern of increasing wages with levelsand ranks. Focusing predominantly on the academic ranks, the monthly premium of asso-ciate professors (docents) over PhDs seems to be somewhere between 5 and 6 thousandCZK (185 and 220 EUR), and the premium of full professors over associate professorsto an average of around 4 thousand CZK (150 EUR). The latter premium, however, ex-hibits systematic variation across different schools within the university: in some it isinsignificant (around 0), while in others it is rather large and averages around 8 thousandCZK (300 EUR).
