摘要

在薪酬偏见的法律和可比价值理论下,我们研究了与工作和就业背景的不同概念相关的薪酬差距估计和推论的变化。我们发现,职位名称对工作薪酬差距的估计比工作组要小,但工作概念的推论重要性在不同的组织、工作场所和工作组中是不同的。从更多到更少的工作概念细节,我们发现在组织层面估计薪酬差距时几乎没有推断差异。工作场所的权衡和工作场所级别内的工作群体更为常见,约占观察结果的10%至20%。法律理论框架导致对重大薪酬差异的经验估计较少,而可比价值估计表明,在工作和工作场所层面存在较高程度的性别和种族偏见。这项研究对未来有关雇主-雇员数据的分析,以及对平等机会法的科学研究和监管执行都有影响。

Conceptualizing Job and Employment Concepts for Earnings Inequality Estimands With Linked Employer-Employee Data 1
We examine variations in pay gap estimates and inferences associated with distinct conceptualizations of jobs and employment contexts under legal and comparable worth theories of pay bias. We find that job titles produce smaller estimates of within job pay gaps than job groups, but the inferential importance of job concepts differs across organizational, workplace, and job groups within workplace units of observation. Moving from more to less job concept detail, we find almost no inference differences when pay gaps are estimated at the organizational level. Tradeoffs at the workplace and job groups within workplace levels are more common, comprising around 10 percent to 20 percent of observations. A legal theoretical framework leads to fewer empirical estimates of significant pay disparities, while comparable worth estimates suggest higher levels of gender and racial bias at the job and workplace levels. This research has implications for future analyses of linked employer-employee data and for both scientific research and regulatory enforcement of equal opportunity law.

期刊介绍: Sociological Methods & Research is a quarterly journal devoted to sociology as a cumulative empirical science. The objectives of SMR are multiple, but emphasis is placed on articles that advance the understanding of the field through systematic presentations that clarify methodological problems and assist in ordering the known facts in an area. Review articles will be published, particularly those that emphasize a critical analysis of the status of the arts, but original presentations that are broadly based and provide new research will also be published. Intrinsically, SMR is viewed as substantive journal but one that is highly focused on the assessment of the scientific status of sociology. The scope is broad and flexible, and authors are invited to correspond with the editors about the appropriateness of their articles.
