“…As already mentioned, Feliciano (1998) also reported large swings in the estimated effects of minimum wages by sex for Mexico, with a decline in the minimum wage having a positive effect on the employment of women. Similarly, a differential impact of the minimum wage by sex and age was also found for the United States, (Mills, Roy and Williams, 1999). By affecting the distribution of employment across population groups, changes in real minimum wages might have an impact on household poverty, an issue that is examined in the next section.…”

De même, on a constaté aux Etats-Unis une incidence différente du salaire minimum selon le sexe et l'âge (Mills, Roy et Williams, 1999). En modifiant la répartition de l'emploi, les variations du salaire minimum réel peuvent influer sur la pauvreté des ménages, question qui sera examinée ci-après.…”
