Abstract: | Using a large employer-employee data set from a representative sample of companies, this paper analyzes wage differentials btw. male and female workers in the Spanish tourism industry. The findings indicate that male workers earn on average 6.7 per cent higher monthly wages than their socially comparable female counterparts. Especially, the type of contract held, the qualifications required for the job and the specific sub-sector of employment are key variables in explaining this gender wage differential etc. |
