In recent years, the income gap between the industry is showing a growing trend. The income gap between the industry over the General Assembly triggered a series of social conflicts, such as resulting in the weakening of basic industries, the intensification of social inequality, as well as the causing social unrest and disharmony. Therefore, reasonably adjust income distribution is not only an urgent requirement to solve the apparent contradiction between the reality of the income distribution in an urgent requirement but also an important content to build a socialist harmonious society.Previous studies on the income gap between industries mainly be analyzed from the industry level, and there is no good control affect individual factors. In this paper, in 2002 and 2007 income survey data of Chinese residents and 2004 the first national economic census and the 2008 second national economic census data to construct a hierarchical linear model. Building. Hierarchical linear model to analysis industry characteristics affecting the income gap between the industry under the control of the individual characteristics of the premise, and sorted these factors.This study showed that there is indeed significant inter-industry income gap. Under the control of the premise of individual-level factors, industry characteristics factors explain the extent of the income gap between the industry variance of 11.76 percent from 2002 to 2007, rising 22.04%, indicating that the industry level factors on the income gap between the industry is gradually increasing the contribution rate.Empirical analysis shows that both industry human capital factors such as the proportion of highly educated industry, industry sex ratio and industry characteristics such as industry economic monopoly, monopoly ownership industry, industry labor productivity are important reasons for the widening income gap in the industry.From the analysis of 2002 and 2007 model, it can be concluded that the industry characteristics factors come to a greater combined effect of factors on the characteristics of its industry sector income gap. Thus the government control policy of the income gap between wage, not only focusing on the human capital characteristics, but also focusing on the industry characteristics, and propose appropriate policy recommendations on this basis.
