Paternity leave and fathers’ behavior: Evidence from leave timing and a major sports event
Paternity leave policies are intended to increase fathers’ involvement in childcare and reduce gender inequalities in labor market outcomes. We study the effects of recent paternity leave expansions in Spain using administrative data on earnings and detailed daily records of maternity and paternity leave spells. First, we examine whether the successive extensions of paternity leave implemented between 2017 and 2021 affected gender gaps in labor m…
The Gender Promotion Gap: Evidence from Central Banking
We examine gender differences in career progression and promotions using personnel data from the European Central Bank (ECB) during the period 2003–2017. A gender wage gap emerges within a few years of hiring, despite broadly similar entry conditions. We also find a gender promotion gap before 2010 when the ECB issued a public commitment to diversity. Following this change, the promotion gap disappears. Using data on promotion applications, we fi…
Gender Gaps in the Evaluation of Research: Evidence from Submissions to Economics Conferences
We study gender differences in the evaluation of submissions to economics conferences. Using data on more than 9,000 submissions from the Annual Congress of the European Economic Association (2015–17), the Annual Meeting of the Spanish Economic Association (2012–17) and the Spring Meeting of Young Economists (2018), we find that all‐female‐authored papers are 3.3% points (p.p.), or 6.8%, less likely to be accepted than all‐male‐authored papers. T…
The Cycle of Earnings Inequality: Evidence from Spanish Social Security Data
We use detailed information from social security records to document the evolution of male earnings inequality and employment in Spain from 1988 to 2010. We find that inequality was strongly countercyclical: it increased around the 1993 recession, experienced a substantial decrease during the 1997–2007 expansion and then a sharp increase during the recent recession. This evolution went in parallel with the cyclicality of employment in the lower m…
