abstract: 'Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to focus on the investigation of
gender inequalities in the labour market at the regional level in Greece
throughout the years preceding and following the economic crisis.
Design/methodology/approach - Utilising microdata from the European
Union Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU- SILC)database from
2005 up to the most recent available, the authors construct the Total
Earnings Gap Index, a composite index at the individual level which
incorporates gender differentials in aspects related to employment, work
intensity and earnings. This approach is further complemented by the
results of the econometric analysis (a probit model for the probability
of being in employment and a Heckman selection model for the
determinants of hourly pay and hours worked), which portray the impact
of gender on a set of labour-related characteristics.
Findings - The findings of the analysis indicate a widespread reduction
of the gender gap; however, this appears to be mainly the result of a
sharper fall in employment among men, hence pointing towards a ``race to
the bottom{''''} process which presents few - if any - signs of an
increase of women''s economic independence. The emerging picture points
towards a trend of regional convergence in gender gaps, while also
highlighting that similar gender equality outcomes are, in certain
cases, shaped by radically different dynamics.
Originality/value - This paper uses an innovative composite index which
provides a multi-dimensional depiction of gender inequality in the Greek
labour market. This index has been introduced by Eurostat and has been
applied at the country level, with this paper being the first - to the
authors'' knowledge-to apply it at the regional level. Additionally, by
examining years before and throughout the crisis, the present analysis
adopts a dynamic perspective, offering valuable insight into the seismic
shifts that Greece''s labour market structure has undergone during this
period.'
