Abstract

Empirical findings suggest that there is a gender specific difference between income and fluctuation. It has been found that women are promoted at roughly the same rate as men, but receive smaller wages. Promoted women are more likely to quit their job than promoted men, whereas women who never have been promoted are less likely to quit than men. This paper focuses on a theoretical explanation of gender based pay and turnover on the basis of the Tournament Theory by assuming gender based differences in aggressive behaviour or cost of sabotage. Zusammenfassung: Anhand empirischer Untersuchungen wird ein geschlechtsspezifischer Unterschied zwischen Einkommenshöhe und Fluktuationswahrscheinlichkeit nachgewiesen. Die vorliegende Arbeit liefert einen theoretischen Erklärungsbeitrag bezüglich der genannten geschlechtsspezifischen Unterschiede. Es werden hierbei sowohl die zu beobachtenden Unterschiede im Fluktuations-verhalten zwischen beförderten und nicht beförderten Arbeitnehmerinnen als auch im Fluktuationsverhalten zwischen Arbeitnehmern und Arbeitnehmerinnen erklärt. Die theoretische Basis bildet die Tournament-Theorie unter der Annahme geschlechtsspezifischer Unterschiede in der Höhe der Sabotagekosten.
