CACCIAMALI, Maria Cristina  e  TATEI, Fábio. Gender and Salaries of the Qualified Workforce in Brazil and Mexico. Prob. Des [online]. 2013, vol.44, n.172, pp.53-79. ISSN 0301-7036.

This article analyses salary discrimination against women with higher education in Brazil and Mexico. This study applied two surveys in 2008 that allowed for the construction of analytical categories compatible between the two countries: PNAD (Brazil) and ENOE (Mexico). Factors that determine gender discrimination in the labor market and its consequences were calculated over the salary differentials using the Oaxaca-Blinder method. The main results show that, for both countries, discrimination is lower among workers with completed higher education than for the rest of the population, although qualified workers show a greater difference relative to other employed groups.

Palavras-chave : discrimination; salary gap; qualified workforce; higher education; gender.
