Abstract

Dans ce document, on presente les resultats d'une analyse empirique de l'ecart entre les gains des hommes et des femmes ayant recemment obtenu un diplome de baccalaureat dans les universites canadiennes. Les heures de travail constituent l'influence la plus importante, tandis que l'experience de travail anterieure, les caracteristiques de l'emploi, la situation familiale, la province de residence et la langue ont des effets plus faibles et plus mixtes.
