Abstract

In the background of sustainable development, the distribution of wages should follow the principle of distribution according to work, but the current gender difference in wages has become one of the factors hindering the further fair development of the economy and society. As the migrant workers, the gender difference of wages is more obvious. Gender differences are mainly reflected in human capital, while human capital has different influences on gender wages differences. The regression model is used to analyze the survey data, and it is concluded that the marital status, age, and non-agricultural working experience significantly negatively affect the wages of female migrant workers. The number of years of education and the number of vocational training have significantly positively affected the wages of female migrant workers. The influence of marital status and years of education is greater than that of male migrant workers. It is pointed out that in order to improve the gender differences, female migrant workers should actively seek educational opportunities and promote them when they are young and in order to increase the wages.
