Presentation
The reform of the Peruvian civil service is currently on debate, causing the study of income differences between the public and private sectors to become relevant. This study seeks to add to the little literature existing in this respect, proposing a new identification strategy to address the bias produced by non-observable variables. Furthermore, it will evaluate if the differences vary according to the educational level attained by the individuals, to which end, it will use the quarterly revolving panel of the Permanent Employment Survey (EPE) between the years 2004-2010.
