Egalitarian Workplaces: Organizational Patterns of Gender Wage Inequality in High Income Countries
Scholars of gender wage inequality have long shown that workplaces play a significant role in shaping the gender gap, but we know little about what kind of workplaces treat women and men equally and how many workplaces are gender-egalitarian. In this talk, I will share findings from my international collaborative research that compares the distribution of gender-(in)egalitarian workplaces across 12 high-income countries and investigates whether and how workplaces change to pay women and men more equally. Based on this research, I will discuss possible paths toward egalitarian workplaces.
Eunmi Mun pursues research in the areas of gender, work, and organizations. She is particularly interested in understanding how companies respond to social demands for gender equality and which corporate practices help address gender equality.
