EDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENT AND EXPERIENCE MITIGATE THE IMPACT OF GENDER DISCRIMINATION ON EMPLOYEE REMUNERATION AT TAIZHOU UNIVERSITIES.

Abstract

The issue of discrimination based on gender is pervasive and has an effect on a broad variety of domains, including educational institutions. This study investigates the impacts of gender discrimination on salaries in the setting of Taizhou universities, with a particular emphasis on the moderating effects of education and experience. In order to facilitate the collection of information via the use of a quantitative technique, questionnaires were sent to all levels and departments of the staff. There is a significant disparity in income between men and women, as shown by the fact that males usually earn more than women do for doing the same or comparable job. Considering that higher levels of education were associated with greater financial benefits for both men and women, it is clear that education had a substantial role in moderating the connection between the two variables. In light of the fact that the gender gap continued to exist and was far more visible for female workers, the phrase “even among the most educated” is a clear indicator of sexism. Due to the very complex ways in which “gender discrimination, education, and experience” interact with one another, it is important to carry out a number of interventions in order to reduce pay gaps in an acceptable manner. There have been a number of recommendations that have been put up, some of which include the following: the establishment of set compensation standards; the conduct of frequent pay audits; and the beginning of programs to educate and engage workers with the benefits of diversity in the workplace. Based on the comprehensive results, it has been shown that sexism has a considerable impact on the pay of university workers in Taizhou. In addition, they bring to light the very important need of eradicating systematic biases against women in order to attain parity in the workplace as well as in other areas of society.
