    Do women gain or lose from becoming mothers? A comparative wage analysis in 20 European countries

    No full text
    This paper analyses disparity in women’s pay across 20 European countries using EU-SILC 2006. First, a selectivity-adjusted gender pay gap is computed and examined in each of the countries. Next, the impact of parenthood is analysed. We show that women suffer a wage disadvantage compared with men all over Europe. Motherhood usually reinforces the gender gap but discrimination is more sex- than maternity-related so that it concerns all women as (potential) mothers. Fatherhood has a positive impact on men’s wages. Finally, in most countries, the wage gap between mothers and fathers is even deeper than that between women and men.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishe

    ABSTRACT :This paper analyses disparity in women’s pay across 25 European countries using EU-SILC 2005. First, the gender pay gap is examined. Next, the impact of parenthood is analysed. We show that women suffer a wage disadvantage compared with men all over Europe, except for Poland. Motherhood usually reinforces the gender gap but most discrimination is sex-related so that it concerns all women as potential mothers. There is no uniform relationship between the parenthood and the gender wage gap.RESUME :Cet article présente une analyse de la disparité salariale dans le salaire des femmes dans 25 pays européens sur base du EU-SILC 2005. Premièrement, l’écart salarial de genre est examiné. Ensuite, l’impact de la parenté est étudié. Il est montré que les femmes subissent un désavantage salarial comparé aux hommes partout en Europe à l’exception de la Pologne. La maternité renforce généralement l’écart salarial de genre même si la discrimination opère essentiellement selon le sexe concernant toutes les femmes en tant que mères actuelles ou potentielles. Il n’existe pas de relation uniforme entre l’effet salarial de la parenté et celui du sexe.Numéro spécial "Parentalité et emploi" décembre 2008, Editrice :Danièle Meuldersinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe

    Gender in the crisis and prospects for the future

    No full text
    The aim of this paper is to illustrate how the crisis has affected current and future perspectives for job quantity and quality from a gender standpoint. It starts with a summarised overview of existing literature on the gendered effects of economic downturns. It continues with a statistical analysis of how European labour markets were hit by the crisis analyzing developments in labour market indicators that capture both quantitative and qualitative dimensions of female and male employment and poverty. The aim of the third section is to come to a better understanding of the general job potential that has been shaped by the crisis for both female and male workers in Europe focusing particularly on smart jobs, green jobs, and white jobs. Finally, the paper presents a critical assessment of both the policies that have been adopted throughout the EU in response to the crisis and the indicators that are currently being used to monitor progress towards or away from gender equality on Europe’s labour markets. In this critical assessment of the gendered impact of anti-crisis measures and policies due attention is given both to job quantity and job quality. As such the “theoretical” job potential is put to the test of recent policy developments in order to distil the real-life post-crisis gendered job potential as it is supported by policy-makers throughout the EUinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe
