Abstract
The legal requirement for employers to compensate workers at standard market wages, even if their work falls below competitive levels, is cited as a barrier to job entry for people with high support needs. Productivity-based wage systems have been implemented in some jurisdictions with a goal of addressing this challenge by providing an option for paying workers at rates commensurate with work output. This scoping review explored the international use of productivity-based wage systems, the theoretical and practical arguments that have been advanced for and against productivity-based wage systems, and the relative impact of such policies on employment outcomes. The review followed the procedures outlined by Arksey and O’Malley and included papers published from 2008 to 2017. The search identified 27 papers that were pertinent to at least one of the research questions. Only three countries emerged in the literature as having discernable productivity-based wage policies: Australia, Israel, and the United States. Limited evaluative evidence was identified on the impact of productivity-based wage systems on employment outcomes. There is, however, a robust debate evident concerning the socioeconomic, moral, and legal implications of this practice. Ongoing research is needed to inform policy on this contentious issue.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
