The Gender Gap in Pensions and Wages
解释了女性在养老金领域代表性不足的原因,并考察了其对性别工资差距的影响。基于给定特征,女性拥有养老金的可能性比男性低11%-19%;在性别工资差距的未解释部分中,10%-38%源于养老金覆盖率的未解释差异。
This study provides rationale for the underrepresentation of women in the pension sector and examines the consequences for the gender wage gap. For a given set of observed characteristics, a woman is 11-19 percent less likely than a man to have a pension. Of the unexplained portion of the gender wage gap, 10-38 percent is due to unexplained differences in pension coverage. Finally, consistent with a screening effect of pensions, women are paid more equally in the pension sector. Copyright 1990 by MIT Press.
