| Popis: | In recent years the participation of women in the labor market has expanded, this phenomenon is observed not only worldwide but also in Brazil. However, this advance has not covered all areas of knowledge, especially professions in the fields of science and technology STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics). Therefore, this article investigates the effect of professions classified as STEM on the gender wage differential in the formal market for all Brazilian states. For this purpose, the Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition method was used. The database used is microdata from the Annual Social Information Report (Rela??o Anual de Informa??es Sociais - RAIS), for the year 2019. By estimating the impact of STEM professions on the total salary differential, it was possible to find evidence that STEM professions receive a higher salary premium in relation to other occupations. In addition, the analysis shows that STEM professions tend to pay less for women employed in them. The study progressed towards investigating the gender pay gap for STEM professions only. This analysis revealed a differential of up to 42% against women employed in the same STEM professions. Nos ?ltimos anos a participa??o das mulheres no mercado de trabalho tem expandido, tal fen?meno ? observado n?o s? mundialmente como tamb?m no Brasil. No entanto, este avan?o n?o tem contemplado todas as ?reas do conhecimento, sobretudo as profiss?es dos campos de ci?ncia e tecnologia STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics). Diante disso, o presente artigo investiga o efeito das profiss?es enquadradas como STEM no diferencial salarial de g?nero no mercado formal para todos os estados brasileiros. Para este fim, utilizou-se o m?todo de decomposi??o Oaxaca-Blinder. A base de dados utilizados trata-se dos microdados da Rela??o Anual de Informa??es Sociais (RAIS), para o ano de 2019. Ao estimar o impacto das profiss?es STEM no diferencial total do sal?rio, foi poss?vel encontrar evid?ncias de que as profiss?es STEM recebem um maior pr?mio salarial em rela??o ?s demais. Al?m disso, a an?lise mostra que profiss?es STEM tendem a remunerar pior as mulheres nela ocupadas. O estudo avan?ou no sentido de investigar o diferencial salarial de g?nero apenas para as profiss?es STEM. Essa an?lise revelou um diferencial de at? 42% contra as mulheres ocupadas nas mesmas profiss?es STEM. Coordena??o de Aperfei?oamento de Pessoal de N?vel Superior - CAPES |
