“…As a result of such socially constructed and historically consolidated discrimination, to secure a space in the labor market, women must do much more than have sufficient professional qualifications. This can lead to mental illness, which decreases women’s QOL levels in the psychological domain [ 26 , 28 , 29 , 30 ], a finding that was also observed in this study.…”

Background: This study aimed to assess the quality of life associated with gender inequalities in formal workers and to determine the effect of sociodemographic, clinical, and behavioral factors on the quality of life (QOL). Methods: This cross-sectional study involved 1270 workers. Quality of life was measured using the EUROHIS-QOL 8-Item and assessed in terms of psychological, environmental, social, and physical domains, while demographic, socioeconomic, behavioral, and clinical variables served as explanatory variables. Analyses were performed using an ordinal logistic regression model whose significance level was 5%. Results: Of the participants, 80.2% were men, and 19.8% were women; the mean age was 34 (standard deviation: ±10) and 32 (±9) years, respectively. In all prediction scenarios, men were more likely to have a higher quality of life, especially in the physical (odds ratio: 2.16; 95% confidence interval: 1.60–2.93) and psychological (odds ratio: 2.09; 95% confidence interval: 1.51–2.91) domains. Conclusions: Men and women had significantly different levels of quality of life, and sociodemographic, clinical, and behavioral variables partially clarified these differences, which were possibly established by a socio-historical process of construction of the work role determined by gender issues.

“…In some specialties, compensation differences can be attributed reduced clinic volumes as a result of greater time spent with patients. 18 For an individual woman physician, pay disparities may result in hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars of lost income, retirement benefits, and savings over the course of her career. 19 Organizational and legal programs exist to combat pay disparities.…”

This study investigated the magnitude and consequences of educational debt for women physicians. Methods: Participants in a women's leadership course were surveyed. Results: Of the 185 U.S. physician respondents, 152 (82%) and 85 (46%) reported past debt and current debt, respectively. A total of 164 (89%) perceived a relationship between financial stress and burnout, although burnout scores did not vary by debt magnitude. One-fifth or more reported a negative past influence of debt on each of nine aspects of professional development or well-being. Conclusion: Educational debt has negative effects on the careers and well-being of women physicians.

“…These differences may reflect known differences in time spent with patients. 1 They may also reflect known differences in communication style. 6 These results do not exclude the possibility that patients who choose a female physician are different in other ways that make them more likely to be vaccinated.…”
