abstract: 'This paper uses an enterprise-population-level dataset to investigate
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the link between globalization and gender inequality in the Chinese
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
labor market. We find that foreign and exporting firms employ more
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
female workers than domestic nonexporters. Foreign participation and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
export orientation within the same region and industry significantly
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
encourage female employment and reduce the gender wage gap. Furthermore,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
we show that while a large gender wage gap exists for foreign and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
exporting firms, it mainly reflects the difference in gender
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
productivity. Gender wage discrimination is observed only among private
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
nonexporting firms. Overall, our results highlight the importance of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
globalization in encouraging female employment and reducing gender
|
