| dc.description.abstract | This study aims to analyse wage gaps by gender in the Brazilian tourism sector. This involves investigating wage differences in order to identify the variables that determine the wages paid for these activities. We sourced our statistics from the micro-data collected by the National Household Sample Survey (PNAD), released by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) in 2012. We deployed the decomposition of Oaxaca (1973) and Blinder (1973) to measure the differences in wages within the sector. Through this decomposition, we conclude that gender pay discrimination exists in tourism in Brazil, demonstrating that women are less valued than men even when sharing the same job characteristics. As a result, we make policy recommendations and put forward suggestions for further research on the subject. | pt_PT |
