摘　　要：中国政府把劳动力市场的正规化当作近年来的政策目标,本文从两个层面评估了这个目标是否正确:非正规就业者是否需要走向正规化?如何走向正规化?从微观层面上看,非正规就业者的教育收益率不低于正规就业者,劳动力市场灵活性高是有效率的;从城市层面看,随着发展水平的提高,劳动力市场的非正规化会自动下降。这两个结果意味着,促进劳动力市场正规化未必是一个恰当的政策目标,政府需要设法促进经济可持续增长,但不必强迫劳资双方签合同。In recent years, Chinese government has been focusing its labor market policy on formalizing the market. This paper evaluates the appropriateness of the focus by addressing two questions ： should informally employed work force be converted into being formally employed？ How should the government regulate the formalization process？ On the one hand, retm＇n on education to an employee in informal labor market, which is flexible and efficient, is not lower than that in formal labor market. On the other hand, with a city＇s economic development, the significance of informal labor market tends to decrease accordingly. These facts suggest that formalizing labor market should not be the focus of the government＇s labor market policy and that the government should dedicate itself to sustaining its economic development, instead of forcing employers and employees to sign formal contracts.
