Analyses of prescribed pay rates for jobs in the California state civil service in 1985 suggest that work done disproportionately by women and nonwhites is devalued most in positions that are older, not represented by activist unions, have ambiguous performance criteria, or are most generic across organizational settings. We conclude that the extent of ascription depends on propensities toward devaluation in a given setting, prospects for collective action by disadvantaged groups, and the organizational costs and benefits (economic and otherwise) of recalibrating job worth to achieve pay equity."

This article aims to provide answers to the question of why overweight and obese people earn less. Using the data of the German Socio-Economic Panel, we conduct three theory-driven litmus tests for mechanisms that explain the weight wage gap: human capital differences, discrimination due to asymmetric information, or taste-based discrimination. Due to conflicting predictions from the three theories, interaction effects between weight and structural conditions serve as the key identification strategy. Results show that for men, productivity-related variables (e.g. education, work experience, occupation, and physical health) almost completely explain the weight-specific variance in wages. In contrast, for women, neither performance nor a lack of information can solve the puzzle of weight-based differences in wages. We therefore conclude that -- at least in Germany -- overweight and obese women suffer from taste-based discrimination, whereas overweight and obese men earn less due to human capital differences."

Design/methodology/approach: The authors utilized a field experiment (correspondent test) to capture the way in which firms respond to women who exhibit masculine and feminine personality traits. In doing so, the authors minimized the potential for reverse causality bias and unobserved heterogeneities to occur. Findings: Women who exhibit masculine personality traits have a 4.3 percentage points greater likelihood of gaining access to occupations than those displaying feminine personality traits. In both male- and female-dominated occupations, women with masculine personality traits have an occupational access advantage, as compared to those exhibiting feminine personality traits. Moreover, women with masculine personality traits take up positions which offer 10 percentage points higher wages, in comparison with those displaying feminine personality traits. Furthermore, wage premiums are higher for those exhibiting masculine personality traits in male-dominated occupations than for female-dominated positions. Practical implications: Within the labor market, masculine personality traits may increase competency levels and leadership capability. Social implications: As feminine personality traits are stereotypically attributed to women, and these characteristics appear to yield fewer rewards within the market, they may offer one of many plausible explanations as to why women experience higher unemployment rates, while also receiving lower earnings, as compared to men. Originality/value: Masculine and feminine personality traits may be a probable outcome of wage-related differentials. The experimental study isolates spurious relationships and offers clear evaluations of the effect of masculine and feminine personality traits on occupational access and wage distribution. To the best of the authors knowledge, this is the first-field experiment to examine the effect of masculine and feminine personality traits on entry-level pay scales."

Previous empirical studies have found that promoting women to supervisory positions has decreased the wage difference between genders among workers beneath them. However, these studies did not take into account the endogeneity problem associated with job choice. Design/methodology/approach: The author uses a switching model to control for this endogeneity problem under certain assumptions. Findings: Using matched employer - employee data from a sample of 213,709 workers in the Spanish labor market, the author found that an increase in the proportion of women among supervisors within each establishment significantly widens the wage difference between genders. This study shows that the impact of an increase in women's power within establishments may well be more limited than other empirical studies suggest. Originality/value: The author will use the estimated correlations between unobservables to find out whether the most valued skills for being a supervisor and the skills that make a worker more productive in the workplace are substitutes or complements. Additionally, the author breaks down the effects of the gender composition of supervisory jobs on the wage gap into a direct and an indirect effect. The direct effect measures the impact of women's representation among supervisors on the wage difference between men and women within the same job, whereas the indirect effect measures the impact of more women reaching supervisory posts on the wage gap induced by its impact on each type of gender segregation."

Four main results are established, using a range of estimators, including OLS, interval regression, and quantile regression: (1) the presence of a substantively large gender income gap (favoring males) in all six countries; (2) some evidence of a gender-related glass ceiling in some of these countries; (3) some evidence that endowments diminish the income gaps, while the returns to characteristics increase the gaps; and (4) while observed individual characteristics explain a part of the gaps, a substantial part of the income gap is left unexplained. In sum, these results are consistent with the presence of income discrimination towards females but at the same time also point towards the importance of continued attention towards institutions and economic policy for decreasing the gender income gap in these former formally gender neutral economies - notably through attention towards the maternity and paternity leave system, as well as public provision of child care."

We formulate and structurally estimate an equilibrium model of the labor market in which the elasticity of substitution between male and female labor is allowed to vary depending on the task content of occupations. We find that the elasticity of substitution is higher in high- paying occupations that are intensive in abstract and analytical tasks than in low-paying manual and routine occupations. Consistent with this we find a narrowing of the gender wage gap towards the upper end of the wage distribution and an increase in the gender wage gap at the low end. Demand side trends favoured women and this attenuated the supply-driven downward pressure on women's wages in low-paying occupations, and fully counteracted it in high-paying occupations. The paper contributes new evidence on the distribution of the gender wage gaps, and contributes to a wider literature on technological change, occupational sorting, wage inequality and polarization."
