Abstract

El objetivo de este art culo es analizar la evoluci n de las brechas salariales de g nero usando los datos de la Encuesta de Estructura Salarial (EES) espa ola y europea. En la primera parte, comparamos las brechas salariales de g nero por hora, sin ajustar, en Espa a y en distintos pa ses europeos. En la se gunda parte, nos centraremos en el caso de Espa a y estimamos, para los a os 2002, 2006, 2010 y 2014, las brechas salariales ajustadas, es decir controlando no solo por variables socioecon micas (sexo, edad, nivel educativo y experiencia), sino tambi n por variables caracter sticas del empleo y de la empresa (tama o de la empresa, tipo de contrato, tipo de jornada, ocupaci n y sector de actividad). Adem s, calculamos las brechas salariales a lo largo de la distribuci n salarial, tanto las brechas no ajustadas, como las ajustadas. Las brechas ajustadas se estiman utilizando regresiones cuant licas.
