Abstract

Purpose

The main aim of this study was to examine gender differences in job satisfaction in Europe.

Design/methodology/approach

For the empirical analysis, data from the Sixth European Working Conditions Survey were used. Oaxaca–Blinder decomposition with a principal component analysis (PCA) aggregated variable, after unconditional quantile regressions in a multiple imputation background, was implemented.

Findings

Women report higher job satisfaction than men do. Women were significantly more satisfied than men for the middle levels of the job satisfaction distribution.

Originality/value

This study expands the evidence on the determinants of job satisfaction in the European labour market by applying a recent form of decomposition that invests in unconditional quantile regression (UQR). To the best of this study knowledge, this is the first time that the Oaxaca–Blinder decomposition with a PCA aggregated variable after unconditional quantile regression has been employed to study gender-based differences in job satisfaction.

欧洲的工作满意度:一项性别分析
目的本研究的主要目的是检查欧洲工作满意度的性别差异。设计/方法/方法对于实证分析,使用了来自第六次欧洲工作条件调查的数据。在多输入背景下进行无条件分位数回归后,采用主成分分析(PCA)聚合变量进行Oaxaca-Blinder分解。研究发现女性的工作满意度高于男性。在工作满意度分布中,女性的满意度明显高于男性。原创性/价值本研究通过应用一种最新形式的分解,投资于无条件分位数回归(UQR),扩展了欧洲劳动力市场工作满意度决定因素的证据。据本研究所知,这是第一次采用无条件分位数回归后带有PCA聚集变量的Oaxaca-Blinder分解来研究工作满意度的性别差异。
