| Tiivistelmä: | This paper explores the influence of government employment on the gender gap in earnings in seven countries. The results indicate marked variation across liberal, conservative, and social democratic welfare states, and reveal a number of uniformities. Public sector workers earn more on average than do workers in the private sector, most earnings advantages are concentrated on the low end of the earnings distribution. The effect of public employment on the overall gender gap in wages is limited in most countries. |
