This paper investigates whether the gap between the real earnings of highly skilled and low-skilled workers in the formal sector of the South African economy continued to narrow after this country{u2019} s transition to democracy.  aAdult  aSouth Africa  2Equal pay for equal work  Pay equity  Wage differentials  Wages  South Africa  aChris Woolard, Jenny Young, Compress
