abstract: 'The gender income gap is large and well documented in many countries.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Recent research shows that it is mainly driven by differences in working
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
patterns between men and women but also by wage differences. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
tax-benefit system cushions the gender income gap by redistributing it
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
between men and women. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
unprecedented levels of unemployment in 2020 in many countries, with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
some suggestions that men and women have been differently affected. This
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
research investigated the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the gender
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
gap in income in Ireland. By using nowcasting techniques and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
microsimulation, we modeled the effect of pandemic-induced employment
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and wage changes on the market and disposable income. We showed how the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
pandemic and the associated tax-benefit support could be expected to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
change the income gap between men and women. Policy conclusions were
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
drawn about future redistribution between men and women.'
