Pay transparency and the gender gap / by Michael Baker, Yosh Halberstam, Kory Kroft, Alexandre Mas, Derek Messacar. : CS11-0019/430E-PDF

"This paper examines the impact of public sector salary disclosure laws on university faculty salaries in Canada. These laws, which give the public access to the salaries of individual faculty members if they exceed specified thresholds, were introduced in different provinces at different points in time. Using detailed administrative data covering the universe of university faculty in Canada and an event-study research design, this study documented three key findings. First, the disclosure laws reduced salaries on average. Second, the laws reduced the gender wage gap between men and women. Third, the gender wage gap narrowed primarily in universities where faculty members are unionized"--Abstract, page 5.
