Summary: | This study tests the hypothesis that there is a clear difference between the average salaries perceived by male judges and female judges in eight Brazilian courts of justice. Using propensity score matching, judges were paired according to position, length of service as a judge, and court. The differences in average salaries persist even after the matching, although to a lesser degree, which can be explained by gender mediators that operate by generating better opportunities for men than for women. Keywords: judiciary; gender studies; gender pay gap; inequalities. O proposito deste estudo e testar a hipotese de que ha clara diferenca entre as remuneracoes medias percebidas por juizes e juizas de 8 tribunais de justica brasileiros. Por meio da tecnica de matching, realizou-se um pareamento entre juizes e juizas condicionado ao cargo, ao tempo de magistratura, ao mes e ao ano da remuneracao, bem como ao tribunal. As diferencas nas medias remuneratorias persistem mesmo apos o pareamento, o que pode ser explicado pelos mediadores de genero, que operam gerando melhores oportunidades para homens em desfavor das mulheres. Palavras-chave: magistratura; estudos de genero; diferencas salariais; desigualdades. El objetivo de este estudio es probar la hipotesis de que existe una clara diferencia entre las remuneraciones promedio percibidas por los jueces de ocho tribunales de justicia brasilenos. Mediante la tecnica de matching se realizo un emparejamiento entre jueces y juezas condicionado al cargo, a la duracion de la magistratura, al mes y ano de remuneracion y al tribunal. Las diferencias en los promedios salariales persisten incluso despues del emparejamiento, lo que puede explicarse por los mediadores de genero, que operan generando mejores oportunidades para los hombres en detrimento de las mujeres. Palabras clave: poder judicial; estudios de genero; diferencias salariales; desigualdades. |
