%0 Report %A Magda, Iga %A Cukrowska-Torzewska, Ewa %T Do Female Managers Help to Lower Within-Firm Gender Pay Gaps? Public Institutions vs. Private Enterprises %D 2018 %8 2018 Dec %I Institute of Labor Economics (IZA) %C Bonn %7 IZA Discussion Paper %N 12026 %U https://www.iza.org/publications/dp12026 %X We analyze the link between the presence of female managers and the size of the firm-level gender pay gap, looking separately at the private and public sector. Using a large linked employer-employee dataset for Poland and a non-parametric and parametric decompositions, we find that higher presence of female managers is associated with more pay advantage towards women in selected types of public sector units: the ones in which remunerations of women and men are already equal, and a large share of the workforce is tertiary-educated. The effects are, however, relatively small in size. In private establishments, lower gender wage inequality is associated with higher shares of female workers, but not female managers. %K Ñopo decomposition %K female managers %K public sector %K wage inequalities %K gender wage gap %K Oaxaca- Blinder decomposition
