38This paper investigates the gender and ethnic wage differentials for female Immigrants, applying the Oaxaca ecomposition to estimate the level of discrimination. The gender pay gap is quite small (7.42%), but it's not explained by observable differences
, whilst the ethnic wage gap is larger
(27.11%), but the explained components account for about 30%.
Ultimately, we will evaluate how the multiple
levels of discrimination (due to being a woman and a foreigner at the same time)
intersect, following the decomposition
suggested by Shamsuddin (1998).
The double - negative effect is estimated to be 56 - 62%
