  6. Earnings Differences Possible sources of earnings differences between men and women: Employment discrimination Specialization of roles within the family has traditionally caused gender differences in educational choices and types of jobs held. Women typically worked jobs … with more flexible and shorter hours within occupations where skills were transportable across employers. Continuity of work force participation

  7. The Changing CareerObjectives of Women

  8. Women Earning Professional Degrees The career goals and educational choices of women have changed dramatically during the last 41 years. Does this help explain the rising earnings of women relative to men since 1980? What are the implications of this trend for the future earnings of women relative to men? Women as a % of Persons Earning Selected Professional Degrees, Selected Years Field of study 1970–71 1987–88 2010–11 Engineering 0.8 15.3 17.2 Dentistry 1.2 26.1 45.5 Optometry 2.4 34.3 64.1 Law 7.3 40.4 47.1 Veterinary medicine 7.8 50.0 77.4 Medicine 9.2 33.0 48.4 Accounting 10.1 52.6 54.1 Architecture 12.0 38.7 42.1 Pharmacy 25.2 59.7 61.8

Today, almost three of every five graduating seniors are women. Does this indicate that colleges discriminate against men? What does it mean?

  10. Implications for the Future

  11. Implications for the Future Women are increasingly acquiring schooling and training for professional occupations, indicating an increasing commitment to full-time work. This will tend to increase the future earnings of women relative to men.
  12. Questions for Thought: 1. During the last three decades, the labor force participation rate of married females has almost doubled. What impact has this influx of married workers into the labor force had on: a. the average years of work experience of women relative to men, b. the mean hours of work time of women relative to men, and, c. the female/male earnings ratio? 2. Physical strength is important on some jobs. Do you think differences in physical strength between men & women contribute to earnings differences according to gender?
  13. Questions for Thought: 3. In recent years, the median earnings of single men working full time, year round were only two thirds the income levels of married men working full time. Does this indicate that employment discrimination existed against single men and in favor of married men?
