| Abstract: | This study proposes a structural model of earnings by integrating the arguments of gender discrimination, human capital, and segmented labour markets. The analysis uses of an effective sample of 5.005 employees in Taiwan. It is shown that in low-level jobs, gender plays an important role in earnings determination. However, in higher-level jobs, human capital replaces gender as a good predictor of earnings. It is therefore argued that job level is a critical determinant of earnings disparity, especially in interaction with differences in gender and human capital investment. |
