- Abstract
The wage discrimination defined as the female having the same level of education and doing the same job with the men however earning lower wages in proportion to men is explained within the 'Theory of Human Capital' in the litterateur. This theory asserts that the productivity will increase with education and more productive workers will earn higher wages. In this sense, since the duration of the female workers within the labor market is interrupted with the reasons of marriage and motherhood, the return women provide from the investments on education remain low. This study is estimated through the data set of the 2018 TURKSTAT household workforce survey and by using the Human Capital wage equation for the occupational groups included within the sub main group coded 12, 22, 31 and 44 regarding the TMSS code order is estimated with the Quantile Regression model. Regarding the payroll distribution for the occupations with lower levels of professionalism and qualification, it has been concluded that the effects of the variables of gender, education and experience are regularly distinct in high wages income group and this difference is statistically significant. On the other hand, it is observed that the effects generated from the variables of gender, education and experience do not cease for the occupations with higher professionalism and qualifications but regarding the payroll distribution, the effects resulting from these variables within the low and high wage income groups do not create a statistically significant difference.
