This is an objective analysis of the implementation of comparable worth in a city government (San Jose, California), in a state government (Minnesota), and in an entire country (Australia). Explaining comparable worth in terms of economic theory, Killingsworth presents original econometric estimates of the effects of comparable worth on female-male relative wages and employment for the three locations. He develops and estimates two competing models: a conventional model, which relates individual worker's wages to worker's characteristics; and a comparable worth model, which relates wages of job classifications to job characteristics. Killingsworth concludes that conventional remedies to discrimination are a more promising approach than comparable worth for eliminating labor market discrimination. ISBN 0-88099-086-4: $22.95.

This valuable guide for policy-makers, an output of the ILO Interdepartmental Project on Equality for Women in Employment, highlights the advantages and importance of comparable worth for evaluating jobs and setting fair pay differentials. It also indicates the need for equal opportunity policies, and legislation against discrimination in recruitment and promotion, in order to reduce the gender pay gap.

The first comprehensive analysis of work and the workforce in the United States, from the Industrial Revolution to the era of globalization. This comprehensive two-volume reference book is the first to analyze the central role of work and the workforce in U.S. life from the Industrial Revolution through today's information economy. Drawing on a variety of disciplines—economics, public policy, law, human and civil rights, cultural studies, and organizational psychology—its 256 entries examine key events, concepts, institutions, and individuals in labor history. Entries also tackle tough contemporary questions that reflect the conflicts inherent in capitalism. What is the impact of work on families and communities? On minority and immigrant populations? How shall we respond to changing work roles and the growing influence of the transnational corporation? Work in America describes and evaluates attempts to address social and class issues—affirmative action, occupational health and safety, corporate management science, and trade unionism and organized labor—and offers the kind of comprehensive understanding needed to discover workable solutions.
