Do gender norms travel within corporations? The impact of foreign subsidiaries on the home country’s gender wage gap
Abstract
In this note we study how the share of workers in a corporation located in a high gender wage gap country impacts the wage gap in their home country operations. Our findings support the hypothesis that firms with strong intra-firm linkages to a high gender wage gap country also display a relatively large gender wage gap at home.
