Abstract

This paper outlines comparing two independent samples, particularly average driver salary in Slovakia and the other EU countries. Significant differences between salaries are pointed out through two examples dealing with hypothesis testing. For Western European Union countries, the level of salaries in road transport is higher in absolute terms compared to the salaries of drivers in the central and eastern parts of the European Union. Different salaries and requirements of wage regulations create a discriminatory environment among entrepreneurs however harmonization of salaries in the field of road transport is specific because carriers offer transport throughout the whole European Union market.

Highlights

  • Comparing Two Independent SamplesIn the two-parameter match tests, independent choices is considered in which the collection of statistical units from a single base file does not depend on removing units from the second base file

  • The highest average salary for drivers is in Luxembourg, Germany and the Netherlands and it is above 2000 € / month

  • For Western European Union countries, the level of salaries in road transport is higher in absolute terms compared to the salaries of drivers in the central and eastern parts of the European Union

Summary

Comparing Two Independent Samples

In the two-parameter match tests, independent choices is considered in which the collection of statistical units from a single base file does not depend on removing units from the second base file. The hypotheses of matching the parameters of two basic sets are verified, using selection characteristics with known probability distributions. These distributions often depend on whether the variance in the basic files is the same or not
