Breaking Down the Gender Wage Gap by Age and by Hours Worked

Limor Golan () and Andrés Hincapié

The Regional Economist, 2016, issue October

Abstract: In this study, the gap is compared from one generation to the next. The changes in the wage gap are linked to changes in labor supply and to ?statistical discrimination??when women pay a price because many other women are less attached to the workforce than men are.
