Workplace Gender Pay Gaps: Does Gender Matter Less the Longer Employees Stay?

Abstract: Research indicates men often receive greater merit rewards than women for the same performance. It is unclear, however, whether gender differences in merit rewards narrow with increasing firm tenure or whether gender differences in merit-rewards stay constant across employees' firm-internal career. Using longitudinal personnel records of a private U.S. employer (2005–2014), the author finds no evidence for declining gender effects on pay when employees stay longer, not even among nonprofessionals where perform… Show more

“…Wage differences between men and women can persist even when controlling for education, work history, occupation, and industry [1]. Pay gaps may vary depending on organizational contexts, such as supervisory discretion and job type [15]. The gender wage gap was smaller in the non-profit sector, primarily due to lower occupational segregation levels of the non-profits [4].…”

“…Men earn, on average, between $100,001 and $125,000 per year, while women earn, on average, between $50,001 and $75,000 per year. This gender pay gap is considerable, though not a novel finding in research on women in the professions (Kronberg, 2020;Lang & Groß, 2020). Female veterinarians tend to work in slightly larger veterinary clinics compared with their male counterparts.…”

“…Accordingly, women tend to dominate care and service work (e.g., customer service, waitressing, nursing, and teaching), whereas men disproportionately occupy STEM (science, technology, engineering, and maths) occupations, along with blue-collar work that underscores physical strength and manual labor. Furthermore, the jobs that women typically occupy are valued less and pay less than male-dominated jobs (e.g., Budig, 2002;England, 2010;Hodges, 2020;Kronberg, 2020;Lang & Groß, 2020;Mandel, 2013). When women enter male-dominated occupations, they confront organizational structures that are not gender-neutral but that tend to reflect the experiences of men (Acker, 1990;Gorman & Mosseri, 2019).…”

“…A study in Ghanaian industrial workers indicates a positive association between age and perceptions of workplace safety (Gyekye & Salminen, 2009). The prevalent age stereotypes in work settings (Posthuma & Campion, 2007), manufacturing masculinity (Payne, 2018), gender disparities in workplace payment (Kronberg, 2019), and gender wage gaps (Cukrowska-Torzewska & Magda, 2019) are documented in the academic works. A study with 122 employees from a large electricity supplier company in Israel reports gender and marital status have associations with workplace deviance (Chernyak-Hai et al, 2018).…”
