Gender Pay Gap in Poland

100%
PL
Celem artykułu jest analiza porównawcza rzeczywistej i skorygowanej luki płacowej w Polsce i wybranych krajach wysoko rozwiniętych oraz dyskusja na temat czynników wpływających na zróżnicowanie w wynagrodzeniach mężczyzn i kobiet. Wykorzystano dane Eurostatu EU-SILC oraz Międzynarodowej Organizacji Pracy. W artykule sformułowano wnioski o relatywnie niewielkiej i malejącej luce dochodowej ze względu na płeć w Polsce oraz o niewystarczającym zestawie zmiennych użytych do oszacowania skorygowanej luki dochodowej przez Międzynarodową Organizację Pracy.

The aim of the article is to investigate the actual and explained gender pay gaps in Poland in comparison with selected highly developed countries, and to discuss the factors determining wage disparities between men and women. Data from Eurostat EU-SILC and the International Labour Organization were used. The article concludes that the gender pay gap in Poland is relatively small and decreasing, and that estimates of the explained gender pay gap published by the International Labour Organization do not consider the influence of some important variables shaping wages.

Income distributions can be described by measures of central tendency, dispersion, skewness, kurtosis or by indexes of polarization. In numerous studies, Gini coefficient and Lorenz curve have been used to investigate inequality of incomes. Income distributions can also be analysed in comparison to one another. In the article two measures belonging to Csiszár's divergence class have been used to identify the degree of differentiation of income distributions among the EU countries in 2005 and 2012. Similar and dissimilar countries with respect to distribution of income have been identified and the change of divergence of EU countries income distributions between 2005 and 2012 has been assessed. European Union Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC) dataset has been used.
