This paper examines the empirical validity of the fair wage-effort hypothesis of George Akerlof and Janet Yellen [1990], which postulates that workers' effort depends on the relation between fair and actual wages. The data is taken from a survey within an electronics manufacturer in California, in which factory operators are asked to fill out anonymous questionnaires on their work attitudes, job satisfaction, and work environment. A discrete-choice model is developed to deal with the questionnaire data. The estimated model exhibits a significant effect of perceived fairness of pay on workers' effort, lending support for the fair wage-effort hypothesis.
