Robots Application,Human-Machine Match and Wage Effects
This paper utilizes data from the China Enterprise-Employee Matching Survey to investigate the effects of robots applications on labor wages and the mechanism.The study finds that robots application can lead to an average wage increase of 5.4％,empirically verifying that the"productivity effect"of robot adoption in Chinese manufacturing exceeds the"substitution effect."The adaptation between employee composition and robots can enhance total factor productivity,which subsequently raises average wages.New technologies significantly alter wage premiums across different skill levels,with higher cognitive skills correlating with greater wage potential.Monte Carlo simulations demonstrate that public policies aimed at skill enhancement can effectively address the challenges of income inequality posed by the technological revolution.The findings of this study have important policy implications for the application of new intelligent technologies,human capital accumulation,and income distribution reform in China.
