Ja. Mcmullin et P. Ballantyne, EMPLOYMENT CHARACTERISTICS AND INCOME - ASSESSING GENDER AND AGE GROUP EFFECTS FOR CANADIANS AGED 45 YEARS AND OVER, Canadian journal of sociology, 20(4), 1995, pp. 529-555
Using data from a representative sample of Canadians aged 45 years and
older, this paper examines the influence of family and work-force cha
racteristics on the personal incomes of women and men in varying age c
ategories. The analysis assesses whether the income disadvantage women
experience relative to men is consistent across age groups and whethe
r the factors associated with income vary by age group and gender. The
findings demonstrate that the factors associated with income differ d
epending on both gender and age with men's earnings substantially high
er than women's within and across age groups.
