A Consideration of the Effects Of Gender in the Work-place/employment. This paper will analyze the topic of the inequality and inequity among genders in the Canadian labor force. In particular, this paper will present a critical overview and discussion of an article by Catherine Fillmore titled: "Gender differences in earnings: a re-analysis and prognoses for Canadian women". The focus of this analysis will be directed toward presenting both the author's assessment of the census data collected in her study, and more importantly, addressing both the 'causes' of inequality identified by the author. A broadening of the context and framework will be presented for discussion of inequality, focusing on secondary sources for the purposes of measuring the 'casual' arguments presented by Fillmore, as well as addressing the ways in which this social problem can be rectified and improved. 7 pgs. 24 f/c. 10b.
