This article adds to scarce research on low pay in Czechia, employing pooled longitudinal EU-SILC data for 2004 – 2017. It analyses patterns of low-wage employment and estimates the de-gree of low-pay persistence in terms of genuine state dependence in low-wage employment, accounting for both observed and unobserved heteroge-neity among workers and endogeneity in the initial conditions. The results indicate that low pay exhibits a significant degree of state dependence in Czechia: having a low-paid job on average increases the likelihood of stay-ing low paid in the future by 14 percentage points. The most important indi-vidual factors predisposing workers to earn low wages and get stuck in a low-paid job are low education and the female gender.
