利用德国行政数据,研究发现女性在失业后的收入损失比男性高约35%,且差距持续五年,部分原因是女性更多从事兼职工作,但即使全职女性的工资损失也比男性高近50%。

Abstract

Abstract We compare men and women who are displaced from similar jobs by applying an event study design combined with propensity score matching and reweighting to administrative data from Germany. After a mass layoff, women’s earnings losses are about 35% higher than men’s, with the gap persisting 5 years after displacement. This is partly explained by women taking up more part-time employment, but even women’s full-time wage losses are almost 50% higher than men’s. Parenthood magnifies the gender gap sharply. Finally, displaced women spend less time on job search and apply for lower-paid jobs, highlighting the importance of labor supply decisions.
