Women’s labour force participation and pay inequality: evidence from panel cointegration

 

Abstract

This article examines the relationship between women’s labour force participation and pay inequality for 58 countries for the 1990–2005 period using a panel cointegration analysis. The findings show that while higher women’s labour force participation increases pay inequality in developing countries, it leads to a reduction in developed countries.
