This paper translates the theorem structure generated in Wage-Curve Slope, Signal Accumulation, and Compounded Pay Drift into a representation-ready and empirical-handoff-ready form. Paper I developed a non-normative structural account of wage-curve divergence under individually differentiated pay setting above contractual or collectively secured baseline wage movement. Paper II does not revise that theory or conduct empirical testing. Its purpose is to stabilise the theorem inventory, normalise the output into declarative, descriptive, and predictive forms, and translate theorem-derived variables into observation-ready constructs. Particular attention is given to baseline movement, discretionary wage-curve slope, reduced exposure, negative signal, overtime as transaction, wage-capital conversion, schedule-bound work, work-organisation constraints, and external wage recalibration through employer switching. The paper specifies structural variables, candidate empirical signatures, non-indicators, theorem-to-observation translation rules, instantiation criteria, RI–HITL-compatible qualitative codes, and possible research questions for later empirical testing. It functions as the intermediate methodological bridge between upstream theorem generation and downstream empirical instantiation.
