Abstract

This study investigated the gender pay gap in Peru among older working persons, i.e. sixty years of age and older, who represent more than half of this population. Cultural and social gender norm variables were incorporated as regressors in a Mincer-type income model. Household surveys for the period 2004–2021 were used to estimate the total gap and regional heterogeneities. Three gender norm variables substantially increase the explained portion of the gender pay gap in the Oaxaca–Blinder decomposition. We find that the estimated pay gap among older working persons is 68 percent, larger than the gender pay gap for younger workers as documented in diverse contributions.

老年工作人员与性别工资差距:秘鲁使用性别规范变量的估计

这项研究调查了秘鲁老年工作人员(即60岁及以上，占人口的一半以上)的性别工资差距。文化和社会性别规范变量作为回归因子纳入minter型收入模型。2004-2021年期间的住户调查用于估计总差距和区域异质性。在瓦哈卡-布林德分解中，三个性别规范变量大大增加了性别工资差距的可解释部分。我们发现，年龄较大的工人之间的工资差距估计为68%，比不同贡献的年轻工人的性别工资差距更大。

期刊介绍： Social Politics is the journal for incisive analyses of gender, politics and policy across the globe. It takes on the critical emerging issues of our age: globalization, transnationality and citizenship, migration, diversity and its intersections, the restructuring of capitalisms and states. We engage with feminist theoretical issues and with theories of welfare regimes, "varieties of capitalism," the ideational and cultural turns in social science, governmentality and postcolonialism. We are looking for articles that engage in this exciting mix of debates that will be of interest to our multidisciplinary and international audience.
