摘要

当每周在家工作时间增加到 5 小时时，黑人女性和白人女性的工资损失分别达到 66.3% 和 33.9%。晋升偏差、任务重新分配和缺乏富有成效的社会互动是造成工资损失的最可能机制。这些估算提供了罕见的证据，说明在家工作造成的实际距离成本，特别是不同种族的妇女因照顾生病子女的需要而产生的成本。

Work from home and the racial gap in female wages

This paper studies the racial female wage penalty to remote work in the U.S. Instrumental variable estimates yield wage penalties that reach 66.3 % for black women and 33.9 % for white women when hours worked at home increase to 5 per week. Promotion bias, task reassignment and lack of productive social interaction are the most likely mechanisms for the wage losses. The estimates provide rare evidence on the costs of physical distancing due to work from home, particularly for women of different races managing the needs of their sick children.
