A presente dissertação tem como objetivo compreender de que forma a disparidade
salarial entre sexos, um problema ainda tão intríseco no mercado de trabalho, difere entre cinco
países pertencentes à União Europeia, em que cada um vive a sua realidade cultural e económica.
Procura-se, através da revisão de literatura, segmentar o Gender Pay Gap em três
dimensões: legal, sociológica e económica, a fim de interpretar de que forma esta problemática
se manifesta, as suas causas e origens em diferentes dimensões, explorar os papéis dos atores
sociais para combater a mesma, e procurar compreender as assimetrias do setor privado e do setor
público. Posto isto, confronta-se, entre homens e mulheres, num estudo comparativo entre os
países escolhidos, o nível de escolaridade, a população ativa, onde se analisa, entre outros
indicadores, os tipos de contrato de trabalho: a tempo integral e parcial, com o propósito de expôr
a representatividade das mulheres nas diferentes valências do mercado de trabalho. Ainda na
metodologia da dissertação, examina-se o indicador Gender Pay Gap observado em cada país,
observando-se numa desagregação mais fina do mesmo, através das disparidades sentidas entre o
setor privado e o setor público, e ainda numa análise setorializada mais fina, abrangente das
atividades económicas de referência. O foco é averigurar a assimetria e a intensidade com que,
dependendo do país, o Gender Pay Gap se verifica em áreas díspares.
Por fim, no último capítulo, procura-se perceber, através uma breve caracterização das
políticas públicas adotadas pela União Europeia nos últimos anos, os seus pressupostos e ações
para combater as dissemetrias ainda sentidas no mercado de trabalho.
This dissertation aims to understand how the gender pay gap, still such an intrinsic problem in the labour market, differs among five European Union countries, each of which has its own cultural and economic reality. The literature review seeks to segment the Gender Pay Gap into three dimensions: legal, sociological and economic, in order to interpret how this problem manifests itself, its causes and origins in different dimensions, explore the roles of social actors to combat it, and seek to understand the asymmetries in the private and public sectors. Therefore, in a comparative study between the chosen countries, the level of qualification, the active population is compared between men and women, where the types of work contract are analysed, among other indicators: full time and part time, with the purpose of exposing the representativity of women in the different valences of the labour market. Also in the dissertation's methodology, the Gender Pay Gap indicator observed in each country is examined, looking at a finer disaggregation of the same, through the disparities experienced between the private and public sectors, and also a finer sectoral analysis, encompassing the economic activities of reference. The focus is on ascertaining the asymmetry and intensity with which, depending on the country, the Gender Pay Gap occurs in disparate areas. Finally, in the last chapter, a brief characterization of the public policies adopted by the European Union in recent years, their assumptions and actions to combat the inequalities still present in the labour market, is presented.
