Abstract
In this paper I analyze the impact of investments into information and communication technology (ICT) on relative compensation shares of high-, medium-, and low-skilled workers. Next to investigating the influence of ICT in 14 countries, I explore this impact for 23 industries. I find that the skill-biased technological change hypothesis is rejected if single countries are analyzed with an industry panel, while ICT investments influence relative compensation shares in single industries. There is a positive impact of ICT on high-skilled workers' relative compensation for the time before 1995, while medium- and low-skilled workers' compensation shares are aff ected especially since 1995.
