中文摘要

男性和女性往往从事不同的工作。这种差异是否早已存在于男性和女性所申请的工作类型之中?利用涵盖丹麦全体失业保险金领取者的求职申请行政数据,本文为更广泛劳动力市场中求职申请方面的性别差异提供了证据。在一系列工作特征上,我们发现,即使在可观测特征相似的男性和女性之间,投向不同工作类型的申请占比仍存在较大的性别差距。在标准分解中,申请方面的性别差异可以解释超过70%的残差性别工资差距。(JEL J16, J31, J64, J65, J71)

Abstract

Men and women tend to hold different jobs. Are these differences present already in the types of jobs men and women apply for? Using administrative data on job applications made by the universe of Danish unemployment insurance recipients, we provide evidence on gender differences in applied-for jobs for the broader labor market. Across a range of job characteristics, we find large gender gaps in the share of applications going to different job types even among observationally similar men and women. In a standard decomposition, gender differences in applications can explain more than 70 percent of the residual gender wage gap. (JEL J16, J31, J64, J65, J71)
