The Impact of Unionization on Male-Female Earnings Differences in Canada
利用1981-1988年加拿大数据，分析工会化如何影响男女收入差距，发现性别工会化差距缩小使整体工资差异未扩大7%，非工会部门的性别收入差距贡献更大。
The impact of unionization on male-female earnings differences in Canada is analyzed using data spanning 1981 to 1988, a period in which the male-female unionization gap narrowed considerably. Gender differences in union density, union wages, and nonunion wages are decomposed into characteristics-related and discriminatory components. We find that the drop in the gender unionization gap prevented an increase of 7 percent in the overall wage differential between men and women. Also, male-female earnings differences in the nonunion sector make a substantially larger contribution to the gender earnings gap than do those in the union sector.
