dc.description.abstract | This paper studies gender differences in the allocation of workers across jobs of differentcomplexity using panel data on Finnish metalworkers. These data provide a measure for thecomplexity of the workers' tasks that can be used to construct a complexity ladder of jobs.We study whether women have to meet higher productivity requirements than men in order tobe assigned to more complex tasks. Gender differences in the promotion rates are examined.We use productivity measures that are based on the supervisors' performance evaluationsand examine gender differences in the productivity of promoted and non-promoted workers. Itis found that women start their careers in less complex tasks than men and that they are alsoless likely to get promoted than men who start in similar tasks. When we compare theproductivity of men and women, both at the initial assignment and when some of theseindividuals have been promoted, we find that there is no gender-related productivitydifferential at the time of the initial assignment, but women become on average moreproductive than men afterwards, both in promoted and non-promoted subsets. The mostplausible interpretation of these results is that women face a higher promotion threshold thanmen. | en |
