DESCRIPTION:This paper examines informal redistribution in the form of work
  in small and medium enterprises in Kampala\, Uganda and its drivers. Using
  a field experi-ment\, we show that employers and workers systematically ch
 oose giving/receiving work over cash transfers. Decisions imply a large wil
 lingness to pay for work on both sides of the labor market. Work redistribu
 tion choices are unaffected by the economic and training value of the task\
 , and employers pay for zero marginal product work. Removing stakes in the 
 game also does not affect decisions\, ruling out signaling and relational p
 ersonal benefits as drivers. Employers and workers motivate work redistribu
 tion mostly with fairness considerations and\, secondly\, with the psychoso
 cial value of work for workers. Results appear externally valid\, as giving
  via work predicts increased hiring in the firm\, but it does not lead to h
 igher revenues\, sales\, or profits\, confirming that work redistribution i
 s unlikely to be productive.\\n\\nContact: Timothée Demont: timothee.demo
