Gender Differences in Formal On-The-Job Training: Incidence, Duration, and Intensity Labour: Review of Labour Economics and Industrial Relations 22,4 (December 2008): 629-659. Also: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1467-9914.2008.00427.x/abstract Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: Blackwell Publishing, Inc. => Wiley Online Keyword(s): Discrimination; Discrimination, Sex; Gender Differences; Training, On-the-Job This paper explores whether there is a gender gap in the incidence, duration, intensity, and number of events of on-the-job training. Overall, women appear to receive a higher incidence of on-the-job training whereas men receive on-the-job training of longer duration. Including measures intended to capture the extent of labor force attachment and expected tenure fails to reduce the gender gap in the duration of on-the-job training. Therefore, the gender gap in the duration of on-the-job training must be attributed to differences in unobserved worker characteristics that differ by gender or discrimination. |
