Do gender norms travel within corporations? The impact of foreign subsidiaries on the home country’s gender wage gap
PublicationArticle (with peer review)
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.
