FACTORS AFFECTING GENDER WAGE GAP: EMPRICAL EVIDENCES FROM SELECTED OECD COUNTRIES
Öz: Nowadays, poverty has become a multi-dimensional problem, including social factors, rather than just an economic problem. Especially recently, poverty has been addressed in terms of gender focused on women and men. Gender-oriented approach to the problem of poverty has been gradually increasing. In the gender-based poverty approach, inequalities between men and women are addressed and it is emphasized that women are poorer than men. According to this approach, poverty is increasingly feminized, and women are a part of poverty to a greater extent than men in terms of gender. The increasing impoverishment of women is also expressed as the feminization of poverty One of the most important reasons of women's impoverishment is the wage inequality between men and women. In this context, this study aims to analyze the effects of factors playing an important role in women's impoverishment on wage inequality are analyzed in the sample of selected OECD countries for the period of 1996-2016. According to the results, women's participation in the labor force, life expectancy at birth, higher level of education have a decreasing effect on gender wage gap. In addition, the increase in the employment rates of women in the industry sector also has a decreasing effect on wage inequality. On the other hand, the low education level of women and the increase in the female population over 65age increase the gender wage gap.

Öz: Günümüzde yoksulluk salt ekonomik bir sorun olmaktan çıkıp sosyal faktörleri de kapsayan çok boyutlu bir sorun haline gelmiştir. Özellikle son zamanlarda yoksulluk sorununa cinsiyet odaklı yaklaşım giderek artmaktadır. Cinsiyete dayalı yoksulluk yaklaşımında kadın ve erkek arasındaki eşitsizlikler ele alınmakta ve kadınların erkeklere oranla daha yoksul olduğu ve bu yoksulluğun nedenleri üzerinde durulmaktadır. Bu yaklaşımda yoksulluğun giderek kadınlaştığı ve cinsiyet açısından bakıldığında kadınların erkeklere nazaran daha büyük oranda yoksulluğun bir parçası olduğu ifade edilmektedir. Kadınların giderek yoksullaşması durumu yoksunluğun kadınlaşması olarak da ifade edilmektedir. Kadınların yoksullaşmasının en önemli nedenlerinden biri kadınlar ve erkekler arasındaki ücret eşitsizliğidir. Bu bağlamda, çalışmamız, 1996-2016 yılları aralığında seçilmiş OECD ülkeleri örnekleminde kadınların yoksullaşmasında ücret eşitsizliğinin etkilerini incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Çalışmamızın bulgularına göre kadınların işgücüne katılımı, doğumda beklenen yaşam süresi, daha yüksek eğitim düzeyi, cinsiyete dayalı ücret eşitsizliğini azaltıcı etkiye sahiptir. Ayrıca sanayi sektöründe kadın istihdam oranlarının artması da ücret eşitsizliğini azaltıcı etkiye sahiptir. Diğer yandan, kadınların düşük eğitim düzeyi ve 65 yaşın üzerindeki kadın nüfus oranının artması cinsiyetler arası ücret farkını artıran unsurlardır.
