摘要：

In 2015, China implemented executive compensation reform for state-owned enterprises (SOEs) that exogenously reduced vertical pay disparity (i.e., the pay difference between executives and average workers within a firm). We leverage this regulatory change to examine how traditional Chinese culture interplays with pay disparity to affect employee productivity. Our results show that in a cultural context characterized by high levels of power distance and masculinity, a sudden reduction in the executive–average worker pay ratio is accompanied by a notable decline in employee productivity. Furthermore, the decline in productivity is more pronounced when employees are exposed to greater cultural traditionality. Overall, our findings suggest that imposing pay restrictions without taking cultural context into account can have adverse effects on firm value. As such, this study has significant implications for the design and implementation of executive compensation policies, particularly in cultural contexts characterized by high degrees of power distance and masculinity.
