About this event

Business • Career

Across many OECD countries, the labor share of GDP has been steadily declining. Why have wages lagged behind overall economic growth? This workshop explores the role of employer market power in shaping these trends. Evidence from multiple countries points to a shrinking number of firms competing for workers’ services, raising serious concerns about the future of labor markets. What does this mean for workers, and for the broader economy?

Join us to explore these issues and engage in a timely discussion about the future of work.
