Sex Discrimination in Restaurant Hiring: An Audit Study
通过配对男女应聘费城餐厅服务员岗位,发现高价餐厅中女性获得面试和录用机会的概率显著低于男性,部分原因来自顾客歧视。
In an audit study of sex discrimination in hiring, comparably matched pairs of men and women applied for jobs as waiters and waitresses at restaurants in Philadelphia. In high-price restaurants (where earnings are higher), job applications from women had an estimated probability of receiving a job offer that was lower by about 0.4, and an estimated probability of receiving an interview that was lower by about 0.35. Both estimated differentials are statistically significant. Additional evidence suggests that customer discrimination partly underlies the hiring discrimination.
