| Tiivistelmä: | This paper addresses the consequences of wage compression for the gender wage gap in Sweden during the period 1968-1991. It is found that the effects of changes in the wage structure on women's wages have varied over time and have been partly counteracting. Changes in industry wage differentials have systematically worked against women, while changes in the returns to human capital and unobserved characteristics have contributed to reductions in the gender wage gap. Changes in the wage structure were particularly important btw. 1968 and 1974 when there was a dramatic reduction in overall wage inequality. |
