Why Did Gender Wage Convergence in the United States Stall?
Book • 2023
This working paper explores the reasons behind the stagnation of gender wage convergence in the United States.
It highlights that the introduction of family-leave policies significantly contributed to this stagnation, affecting the rate of wage progression for women relative to men.
If convergence had continued at pre-family leave rates, wage parity could have been achieved by 2017.
