“…Rising gender equality in the family and workplace suggests lower gender disparities among today's younger adults. Wage gaps have attenuated over time (Blau and Kahn 2017), and rising rates of female employment (especially among college-educated women) suggest the earnings gap has attenuated too (Blau and Winkler 2017;Cotter et al 2007). If men hold a smaller baseline advantage, it may be less likely to accumulate as drastically with age.…”

Integrating ideas about intersectionality with life course theories, we explore how trajectories of gender earnings inequality vary across race and education. Past research suggests that gender earnings gaps by race and education are narrower for more disadvantaged groups, yet it remains unknown whether these key differences amplify, decline, or remain constant over the life course. Using data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979, we estimate growth curve models of annual earnings, examining differences between blacks and whites and by educational attainment in the levels and slopes of men and women’s earnings from ages 22 to 47. Findings show that holding multiple forms of gendered, racial, and/or educational advantage has an interactive effect that accumulates across life. Accordingly, the gender gap expands most with age for whites and the college-educated, where the male premium is compounded by racial and/or educational advantages.

“…As a result, the demands of breadwinning and the demands of caregiving often collide, which helps to explain why gender gaps in salary and career advancement balloon at the mid-career level. This career stage typically coincides with greater caregiving (i.e., becoming parents) and eldercare responsibilities (Blau & Winkler, 2017;Catalyst, 2018a).…”

Forget the “Mommy Track”: Temporal Flexibility Increases Promotion Aspirations for Women and Reduces Gender Gaps

Gender gaps in pay and career advancement increase as people take on greater caregiving responsibilities, with large gaps persistent in high-level, time-intensive positions. Given extant research concerning gender roles, and job demands and resources, I hypothesized that temporal flexibility, in particular control over work hours, would positively affect promotion aspirations, especially for women. Moreover, this interaction effect would be mediated by anticipation of work–family conflict. Results from two studies—correlational and experimental—supported these predictions. In Study 1, using archival data from the General Social Survey, results revealed an interaction between gender and temporal flexibility on promotion aspirations. Among a sample of working parents with children, temporal flexibility was significantly and positively associated with promotion aspirations for women with the opposite pattern found for men. A subsequent experimental study, concerning a promotion to a time-intensive position with an online sample of parents, revealed that women reported lower aspirations for this type of promotion compared to men when the position was characterized as inflexible, but the gap disappeared when the position offered temporal flexibility. Anticipated work–family conflict explained this interaction effect. Highlighting flexibility and schedule control increased promotion aspirations among women, an important implication for employers looking to recruit and promote female employees.

“…Simanjuntak (1998) juga menyebutkan bahwa semakin banyak jumlah tanggungan keluarga akan semakin besar kemungkinan seseorang untuk masuk dalam dunia kerja. Akan tetapi, faktor tanggungan keluarga juga sangat bergantung kepada struktur keluarga dimana sangat mempertimbangkan waktu yang digunakan untuk mengurus keluarganya (Blau & Winkler, 2017).…”

Tingkat pengangguran dan inflasi merupakan variabel makroekonomi yang fundamental di suatu Negara. Hubungan kedua variabel tersebut masih menjadi isu menarik di kalangan ekonom berkaitan dengan adanya teori kurva Phillips. Ekonom A.W. Phillips menjelaskan bahwa terdapat hubungan negatif antara tingkat pengangguran dan inflasi. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk melihat hubungan antara tingkat pengangguran dengan inflasi di Negara ASEAN 7. Hasil estimasi menggunakan data sekunder yang diperoleh dari World Development Indicators dalam kurun waktu 2009-2018. Menggunakan analisis regresi data panel, inflasi berpengaruh signifikan secara statistik dengan tingkat pengangguran di Negara ASEAN 7. Hubungan yang negatif antara inflasi dan tingkat pengangguran menunjukkan bahwa terdapat trade off di kedua variabel tersebut. Tulisan ini juga menganalisis faktor yang memengaruhi pengangguran. GDP perkapita secara statistik signifikan berpengaruh negatif terhadap tingkat pengangguran. Selain itu, penanaman modal asing atau Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) juga berpengaruh negatif terhadap tingkat pengangguran. Kebijakan pemerintah haruslan berorientasi kepada peningkatan investasi yang nantinya dapat memperbaiki kondisi ketenagakerjaan di Negara ASEAN 7 yang mayoritas masih merupakan Negara berkembang.
