Gay Pay in the UK
首次利用分解方法分析英国同性恋者的收入，发现男同性恋可能面临薪酬歧视，尽管平均收入高于异性恋者。
This paper attempts, for the first time for the UK, to analyse the earnings of homosexuals and test for the possible existence of sexual orientation discrimination by using decomposition analysis. Homosexuals are identified as individuals living with ‘same‐sex partners’. Gay men and lesbians in our sample both earn more on average than non‐gays. However, we find that the decomposition indicates that homosexual men may be subject to discrimination in pay, in the sense that they earn less than heterosexual men with similar characteristics would earn, and therefore they may be more likely to benefit from UK legislation.
