The ongoing question that the weekly assignments will focus on is: Are males and females paid the same for equal work (under the Equal Pay Act)?

Note: to simplfy the analysis, we will assume that jobs within each grade comprise equal work.

The column labels in the table mean:

ID – Employee sample number

Sal – Salary in thousands

Age – Age in years

EES – Appraisal rating (Employee evaluation score)

SER – Years of service

G – Gender (0 = male, 1 = female)

Mid – salary grade midpoint

Raise – percent of last raise

Grade – job/pay grade

Deg (0= BS\BA 1 = MS)

Gen1 (Male or Female)

Compa - salary divided by midpoint, a measure of salary that removes the impact of grade

This data should be treated as a sample of employees taken from a company that has about 1,000

employees using a random sampling approach.
