“…Feminism has not confined itself to the gender role in labormarket segmentation, but embraces, in labor analyses, the other sets of social relations, including race, ethnicity, age, sexuality, and cultural practices, that link to the dynamics of labor markets (Oberhauser, 2000). Empirical analyses have shown extensively the unfortunate overlap of women, racial minorities, and ethnic migrants in lower strata employment or positions with discriminative wages (Bagchi-Sen, 2001;Boston, 1990;Linsley and Pate, 1994;McCall, 2000a;2000b;Shumway and Cooke, 1998;Wilson et al, 1995).…”

IntroductionLabor-market segmentation is of concern for several reasons. Segmented labor markets are a major cause of economic inefficiency because excluding a majority of workers from access to many labor-market segments wastes human resources and reduces the flexibility of the labor market to cope with economic change (Anker, 1997). Segmentation induced by gender, ethnicity, or race marginalizes certain social groups and contributes to social inequality (Boston, 1990). Research into the dynamics of labormarket transformation, both the mechanisms and the outcomes of change, provides an important means of understanding the changes in economies and social welfare.Although labor-market segmentation in developed economies has been studied extensively (Bauder, 2003;Hanson and Pratt, 1991;Peck, 1996), there are growing interests in and concerns over the changing patterns of labor markets in developing economies (Fan, 2002;Gindling, 1991). As a developing nation, China has experienced dramatic social and economic changes over the last two-and-a-half decades during its transition from a centrally planned system to a`socialist market economy' (Oi, 1999;Walder, 1995;Xu and Tan, 2001). During this process of economic transition, massive changes in the Chinese labor market have resulted in a new relation between labor supply and demand (

The study is aimed at exploring the influencing factor of wages among social service workers (SSWs) through a cross-country analysis. Using Luxembourg Income Study data, two aspects are emphasised: first, the trends and patterns of wage levels among SSWs. Second, the determining factors that influence their low wages at a cross-national level and how those factors are intersectionally intertwined to exacerbate the wage level. Three significant findings are confirmed: a universal gendered wage gap; a more significant wage gap for those on part-time and/or fractured contracts and employed in the private sector; and a substantial association between a higher education and higher wages. Two policy concerns are raised for discussion: first, tackling the gendered wage gap and ensuring more secure employment, and a guaranteed living wage for those employed in the private sector. Second, enhancing the professionalism for empowering their effective choices in the labour market is essential.
