Discrimination of Wages between Men and Women Outline
I. Attention getter: According to the Institute for women policy research, “In 2018, female full-time, year-round workers made only 82 cents for every dollar earned by men, a gender wage gap of 18 per cent.”
B. Thesis statement: Therefore, this paper establishes the deliberate gender discrimination in remuneration as a significant feature of the labor market.
II. Occupational segregation
A. Supporting details: For instance, in construction, there has existed no development to integrate all genders in operations.
B. Supporting details: An equal pay among all genders it would reduce poverty levels among the working women and their households by more than 50 per cent and put in more than $513billion on the overall national economy (Institute for Women's Policy Research, 2017).
III. “Monopsonistic” wage discrimination
A. Supporting details: Women are limitedly surged by wages when offering labor to a employer compared to their male counterparts who have payments as their primary consideration before supplying work (Hirsch, 2016)
B. Supporting details: The journey to solve the gender pay gap since it is based on the labor market responsiveness rather than employers prejudice upon women.
IV. Mothering and Productivity
A. Supporting details: The women’s disproportionate division of time for the family care compared to their male counterparts. Women are more likely to take time off work when they have children in comparison to men.
B. Supporting details females will tend to enter into occupations with the low venture on the job training but with initial high remuneration and men tend to take advantage of occupations with high investment on the job training with low initial payment but with steep wage profiles (Kunze, 2018).
V. Conclusive statement
A. Thesis statement: Statistical studies demonstrate a significant difference between various countries and sectors on the men and women wages convergence
B. Wrap up speech: The reviews lack quantitative facts to justify the main drivers of the wages discrimination between men and women.
