The paper also shows the distinction between genders and skill levels to be crucial in the determination of wage gaps. Wage gaps are decomposed in the standard Oaxaca-Blinder way and their development is examined using counterfactual analysis. The paper also shows that conventionally defined wage ...
Using new linked employee-workplace data for Britain in 2004, we find that the nature of the public private pay gap differs between genders and that of the... M Chatterji,K Mumford,Peter N. Smith - Bonn: Institute for the Study of Labor (IZA) 被引量: 30发表: 2007年 Public Sector ...
Thus, mirroring the Oaxaca–Blinder decomposition, it is possible to decompose the difference between unconditional wage distribution for the two genders. It should be noted that in these quantile decompositions, a hundred different quantiles (and thus percentiles) are estimated, and standard errors ...
2. The trajectories for high-educated women are lower than for high-educated men (mainly reflecting lower additional returns to private sector experience), while the trajectories for low-educated workers are more comparable across genders. Among women, the difference between the low and high ...
Wage Gaps by Demographics Unfortunately, there continues to be a gap in pay in the U.S. between various genders and races. According to the Institute for Women’s Policy Research, the gap between genders widened from 2017 to 2018, withwomen earning 81.1 percentof what a man earns. This is...
For Germany, Spain, France, the Netherlands and the US an Error Correction Model with a long-term non-linear wage equation is estimated by 3-SLS to obtain consistent estimates, accounting for endogeneity and common shocks. On the basis of the estimated parameter elasticities of wages with respec...
In Germany, associations between characteristics of fields and wages do not seem to differ between the genders. In Finland, the findings suggest that women profit more than men from fields with strong linkages to occupations. Our findings highlight that research analyzing the association between ...

For both genders, the labour market situation is remarkably better for voluntary part-timers. The probable explanations for this are the generally low wage levels, the cyclical behaviour of wage gaps, black income and unobserved heterogeneity of employees and firms.

(2019), for instance, document that men are more optimistic than women about the future state of the economy. In a similar vein, we compare the expected average starting salary between genders and show that male students are more optimistic about future wage levels in their field than their ...
