Pay Transparency and the Gender Gap
利用加拿大各省分时出台的公立大学薪酬公开法，研究发现该政策使男女教授薪酬差距缩小了约20%至40%，对关注薪酬公平的政策制定者和研究者有参考价值。
We examine the impact of public sector salary disclosure laws on university faculty salaries in Canada. The laws, which enable public access to the salaries of individual faculty if they exceed specified thresholds, were introduced in different provinces at different times. Using detailed administrative data covering the majority of faculty in Canada, and an event-study research design that exploits within-province variation in exposure to the policy across institutions and academic departments, we find robust evidence that the laws reduced the gender pay gap between men and women by approximately 20–40 percent.
