Description
Summary:This paper analyzes the results of a survey about labor mobility of a sample of 1,182 Spanish employees. The results indicate that women have lower mobility than men, and that the mobility of men and women is explained by different factors. The employees perceptions about job satisfaction, pay fairness, and employment stability are also more explicative of job mobility than traditional jobrelated factors, such as wages or training. These results have managerial implications for the segmentation of men and women in the labor market.
