  • Empirical Evidence on Income Inequality in Industrialized Countries

    This chapter reviews the evidence on cross-national comparisons of annual disposable income inequality in over 20 wealthy nations.

  • Job Preferences as Revealed by Employee Initiated Job Changes

    Many previous studies try to discover job preferences by directly asking individuals. Since it is not sure, whether answers to these surveys are relevant for actual behaviour, this empirical examination offers a new approach based on representative German data. Employees who quit their job and find a new one, compare the two jobs with respect to eight job characteristics: type of work, pay, chances ...

  • Gender pay gaps among highly educated professionals — Compensation components do matter
