Wage determinants in the EU: The riddle of opposing gender gaps

Oczekiwana publikacja: March 2026

Why are higher rates of female educational attainment, relative to those of men, and an increasing gender education gap not translating into a faster reduction in the gender pay gap?

This report analyses the extent to which trends in educational attainment by gender (the gender educational gap) and wages by gender (the gender pay gap) are – or are not – correlated. It examines the factors driving any mismatch between wages and education levels across gender, considering elements such as subject choice, sector, occupation, tenure and other wage determinants.
