Einfluss von Unternehmen auf den Gender Wage Gap

Unternehmen in Deutschland tragen maßgeblich zum Gender Wage Gap bei. Laut einer WZB-Studie basieren 30% der Lohnlücke auf betriebsspezifischen Faktoren. Frauen arbeiten häufiger in schlechter zahlenden Firmen oder werden intern schlechter vergütet. Besonders gravierend sind die Karriereeinbußen nach der Familienphase, was auch auf mangelnde Betreuungsinfrastruktur hindeutet.

Women have approximately two-thirds of the bargaining power of men.
An important driver of #GenderInequality: Changes in firm profitability can reduce the #GenderWageGap, even without improvements in structural #GenderEquality.
-> significant implications for high-rent, high-inequality industries such as finance, where rent-sharing mechanisms favor male employees.

Women's "different" education (fields of study) or "more" education (advanced degrees) don't explain most of the gender wage gaps that are contributing most to contemporary wage inequality trends. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37061326/

Higher education and high-wage gender inequality - PubMed

Over the past 60 years, we have witnessed a relocation of gender wage inequality. Whereas the largest wage gaps were once concentrated among lower-paid, lower-educated workers, today these wage gaps sit among the highest-paid, highly-educated workers. Given this reordering of gender wage inequality …

Lavoro gratuito femminile. L’elefante del gender wage gap. -

Ogni anno l’INAPP (Istituto Nazionale per l’Analisi delle Politiche Pubbliche) edita un rapporto relativo alla partecipazione maschile e femminile al mercato del lavoro. Smaltita la sbornia istituzionale, prodotta dalla narrazione mainstream che l’otto marzo decide di ricordarsi dello squilibrio di potere tra maschi e femmine sul terreno salariale (pudicamente ribattezzato gender wage gap), è utile provare a far parlare i dati nudi e crudi allo scopo di scoprire una realtà in cui le disuguaglianze di genere, non solo non si stanno riducendo, ma anzi si radicalizzano. Per svolgere un’analisi degna di questo nome, bisogna intanto controllare quale sia il metodo con...

"… providing publicly available wage information in vacancies, so-called external #payTransparency, can reduce the #GenderWageGap… reduction in the gender wage gap was caused by an increase in women's earnings, particularly at the lower part of the distribution. Earnings of men, on the other side, remained largely constant"

The Race between Technology and Woman: Changes in Gender and Skill Premia in OECD Countries

The era of technological change entails complex patterns of changes in wages and employment. We develop a unified framework to measure the contribution of technological change embodied in new capital to changes in the relative wages and income shares of different types of labor. We obtain the aggregate elasticities of substitution by estimating and aggregating sectoral production function parameters with cross-country and cross-industry panel data from OECD countries. We show that advances in information, communication, and computation technologies contribute significantly to narrowing the gender wage gap, widening the skill wage gap, and declining labor shares.

Pay #transparency can help reduce the gender pay gap, but it can also make pay more "flat" within a company. Pay transparency can limit individuals' bargaining power and reduce the link between income and performance, but it can also lead to employers seeking other, less transparent, forms of compensation which can foster more #gender #inequality.
