  text: <jats:p>Using rich linked employer–employee data for (West) Germany between
    1996 and 2014, we conduct a decomposition analysis based on recentered influence
    function (RIF) regressions to analyze the relative contributions of various plant
    and worker characteristics to the rise in German wage dispersion. Moreover, we
    separately investigate the sources of between‐plant and within‐plant wage dispersion.
    We find that industry effects and the collective bargaining regime contribute
    the most to rising wage inequality. In the case of collective bargaining, both
    the decline in collective bargaining coverage and the increase in wage dispersion
    among the group of covered plants have played important roles.</jats:p>
