Why transition is costly?
• Given education, experience and education of miners, mining
sector gives them the highest payoff from all sectors in the
economy.
• Loosing a job implies that they need to move to their second-best
choice
• If they move to, say, manufacturing, on average they are less
productive than those who worked in manufacturing before
Wage distribution: mining vs. manufacturing
Source: computation based on Polish
Structure of Earnings Survey 2014
Role of policy makers
• Provide guidance:
• signal phase-out of coal early to manage expectations and prevent
invesment with no future
• Ensure that young workers leave mining early so they acquire skills in
growing and not declining sectors
• Acknowledge that transition to other sectors involve costs on the
side of workers and negotiate compensation.
