摘要
最低工资是一种国际通行的基本劳动保障制度,从诞生时起就一直饱受争议。支
持者认为最低工资能够有效地保护弱势劳动者的基本权益,防止“血汗工厂”的出
现;而反对者则认为无论从经典理论还是现实结果来看,最低工资的出现反而使弱
势劳动者的就业形势更加恶化。青少年劳动者是弱势劳动者群体的主体,最低工资
对青少年就业的影响是有关学者研究的重点之一。我国的最低工资制度建立仅有十
多年,不仅制度本身有待完善,而且其对中国青少年的影响机制和效果都还是未知
数。本文研究了我国最低工资和青少年就业之间的关系,试图得出规律性的结果,
以作为对我国最低工资制度作用机制和效果的估计。在引用 2005 年全国 25 个省级
行政区的统计年鉴数据的基础上,通过相关分析、因子分析和回归分析,本研究得
到了一些不显著的数量关系。在此基础上,根据经典的就业理论和我国的国情,作
者对数量分析得到的结果进行了进一步的分析和解释,得出了一些有价值的结论。
主要的结论有:我国最低工资制度对青少年就业的影响随各地区经济发展水平的不
同而呈现出不同的规律,青少年劳动力严重供大于求造成的工资刚性阻碍了最低工

是探索性的研究,本文还存在很多不足之处,需要在今后的研究中不断地加以完善。

institution makes workers’ employment worse in both theory and practice. Youth is the
principal part of workers who are in the inferior position in employment. The relationship
between minimum wage and youth employment is the academic research focus. After
being launched more than a decade, China’s minimum wage institution is still far more

China is also unclear. In this paper, the author attempts to evaluate the quantitative
relationship between minimum wage and youth employment in China. All data used in
this paper is from statistical yearbooks of 25 provinces in China in 2005. By using
correlation analysis factor analysis and regression analysis, the author gets some
unapparent quantitative results. Then the author makes father analysis by using classical
economic theory. Some main conclusions are as follow: the relationship between
