This paper presents empirical evidence on the determinants of labor market earnings and inequality in Greece. Using microdata from the 1988 sample survey, which was conducted by the National Centre of Social Research, earnings equations are estimated based on the measurement framework of Mincer (1974). A refined version of the dual labor market theory, is also tested. Evidence that estimated earnings equations are different in the two sectors suggests that there are in fact two different markets for workers in Greece.
