Using the French data set “2002 Employment Surveyâ€?, this paper aims to shed light on the nature of the gender … parametric estimates. The parametric decomposition of the gender wage gap is run following various assumptions on the ââ … specification errors. Secondly, the gender earnings gap is measured at the mean, thereby ignoring the differences in the form of the …
