Is the gender commuting gap the fault of sexist employers? @women_nz

The best research on the gender pay gap these days relies upon fortuitous datasets. In this case, the French public employment form asks about maximum commuting time and minimum acceptable pay in your next job.

Study finds that ~10% of the gender earnings gap is due to a "gender commute gap," i.e., the greater willingness of women (men) to trade-off a lower (higher) salary for a shorter (longer) commute time. https://t.co/ERcbyuJW7i @CHSommers @JaniceFiamengo @IWF @BenShapiro

We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert”. - J Robert Oppenheimer.
