Abstract/Summary
One of the macroeconomic goals of every country is to pursue low in employment because this would aid in economic development and growth. However, it does not always take into account the quality of jobs. This research paper will determine which jobs are most likely good and bad jobs in terms of wages and what factors define the quality of a job. The researchers obtained their data from the Philippine Labor Force Survey (LFS), 2nd quarter of year 2007. Quantile regression will be used in determining jobs that are more likely to be good in terms of wage differentials.
