Abstract: Given the complexity that the wage is paid both as an exchange of work performed and as compensation for the adverse working conditions, and the significant differences in jobs with hardness and dangerous between urban and rural workers, it may be not objective enough that measuring labor market segmentation of urban and rural on the observed wage. This paper focuses on the adverse working condition and the compensation, and the Urban-Rural Segmentation based on the wage of comparable statistical criteria. The results show that adverse working conditions did not follows higher wages for both rural and urban workers in an absolute sense. Compared to urban workers however, rural workers get more compensating wage because their worse working conditions. Wage differential between urban and rural workers is significantly greater on the statistical criteria of comparable working conditions than that on the statistical criteria of direct survey. We conclude that there exists implicit segmentation in urban labor market in the form of inadequate compensation for adverse working condition. In the secondary labor market, the almost same wages of urban and rural workers does not represent a return on the productivity of rural workers won the equality, especially to the most difficult and hazardous roles.
