Women
Choose to have lower pay than men
John Elliott & Maurice
Chittenden
The
Sunday Times
THE gap between men's and women's earnings
is not caused by discrimination, according to new research. Instead women choose
jobs that pay less because they want more flexible and socially useful careers.
Social scientists at the London School of
Economics tracked the careers of more than 10,000 students who graduated in 1995
from 30 universities and colleges in one of the biggest surveys of its type.
They found that although female graduates earn
12% less than their male counterparts - £25,260 for men and £22,550 for
women after three yearsı experience - the difference is better explained by
choice than workplace discrimination.
The study found that women decide from as
early as 17, when they choose their degree course, on how to combine work and
motherhood. They prefer careers such as teaching and nursing, where they can
take an extended break to raise a family. These choices "affect womenıs
wages even at an early stage of their career and are the single most important
determinants of the gender wage gap", it concludes.
Female students pick degree subjects such as
education and the arts, which produce a lower mean wage than engineering, maths
and computing, where most students are men.
Women are also more likely to work in smaller
firms, in the public sector or on temporary contracts where pay is usually lower
than in the City or large companies.
Part of the gap is explained by different
attitudes. Just over half the women stressed the importance of a socially useful
job, but only 32% of men thought that important. Salary is also a bigger issue
for male graduates: 25% said financial rewards were "very important" compared
with 14% of women.
New rules introduced today mean parents of
children under six can require employers to consider allowing them flexible
hours. It also gives women the right to find out what men doing the same job are
earning. However, the study suggests the changes will affect only a few women at
first because most are likely to have flexibility already. But with two-thirds
of female graduates saying they expect to take career breaks to have children,
it could have a substantial longer-term impact.
Dr Arnaud Chevalier, a research associate at
the LSE who also studies social change from University College, Dublin, said:
"Our research shows that women tend to go for degrees and jobs dominated by
women, even if they have lower financial return. If you are in a job where you
are the only woman, or you are in the minority, that might bring you stress. So
you are more likely to go for a job where women are in the majority."
Chevalier is to present his study to the Royal
Economic Societyıs conference in Warwick tomorrow.
The study mirrors a survey of 47,000 workers
for this yearıs The Sunday Times 100 Best Companies To Work For, which found
women were less well off but happier at work.
Dr Pete Bradon, a research psychologist at the
University of Plymouth who worked on that survey, said: "Perhaps women do
not expect so much. Employment is not their main form of happiness; they look
for something outside the job."
Many women agree. Nicole Joyce, 33, joined
Cardiff-based Admiral Insurance as a trainee team sales manager 11 years ago and
is now the youngest of the four managing directors, all women, of the groupıs
direct insurance brand companies.
She said: "Money is a factor because you
need it to pay your mortgage, but it is more important to be happy and feel you
are making a difference.
"When I do have children the company is very
flexible in giving time off."
But Naomi Feinstein, a partner specialising in
employment law at Lovells, the legal firm, said: The pay gap is self-
perpetuating. If you know women tend to be in a particular industry. women
think, "I will go there because I will be more comfortable."

The so-called 'oppression' of
women ...
click a picture
Western men die some five years earlier than
women. They suffer more from nearly every medical disease and ailment that there is.
And yet, far more money is spent by governments on women's health than on men's
health. Men are also nowadays educationally disadvantaged significantly compared to
women; with the curriculum, the teaching methods and the resources being
designed to cater far more for women and girls than for men and boys. Men make up 80% of the homeless. There are more of them in
social service care-homes as
boys. They are many times more likely to be wrongfully arrested, wrongfully imprisoned, mugged, assaulted or murdered. They are 5 times more likely to lose their
children when families break down, 4 times more likely to lose their homes, 4 times more likely to commit suicide,
20 times more likely to be killed or injured at work, 20 times more likely to be
imprisoned, and, probably, more than 100 times more likely to be demeaned, denigrated and ridiculed by the
mainstream media. Men also pay much more in taxes than women but receive far
less in benefits from the government.
In other words, when compared to women, men are
significantly disadvantaged when it comes to their health, their lifespans, their homes, their
children, their education, their families, the tax burden, the law, the benefit
system, and even when it comes to their
own personal
safety.
They are nowadays also being heavily discriminated against in the work
place.
How is it possible, therefore, that women are being 'oppressed' more than men?
In what areas?
Where?
