    Gender earnings gap and glass ceiling at Spanish universities
    (Taylor and Francis Group, 2024-03-31) Hernández Martínez, Pedro Jesús; Fundamentos del Análisis Económico
    This study aims at analyzing the gender gap in salaries observed in Spanish public universities. It focuses on the glass ceiling problem and quantifies its importance in the gender earnings gap. This article shows that most of the gender earnings gap observed among the faculty of the University of Murcia is due to a glass ceiling problem in accessing the rank of Full Professor, and it includes a measure of research productivity in the analysis. Despite increases in the number of women promoted to the level of Full Professor has increased in recent years, women still comprise less than 30% of the total faculty at this academic rank. The second most important variable that explains most of the earnings gap is research productivity.

    Study of the labor characteristics in managerial positions of sports organizations in the Community of Madrid: A gender perspective
    (Universidad de Murcia. Servicio de Publicaciones, 2025) Gallardo Pérez, Jana; León Quismondo, Jairo; Sin departamento asociado
    The labor situation of women and men in the sports sector has traditionally been different, affected mainly by factors, such as motherhood or cultural aspects. The aim of this research was to explore the labor situation of women and men who hold managerial positions within sports organizations located in the Community of Madrid (Spain). For this purpose, a sample of 401 participants (200 women and 201 men) from various public and private sports organizations was surveyed. A questionnaire was applied for collecting data on their labor situation and analyzed with the Chi-square test, the Phi coefficient, or the Contingency coefficient (CC). Among the main results, a higher representation of men (55.2%) compared to women (38.5%), as well as a salary gap, was observed in management positions within sports organizations. These data are considered of interest, mainly for the personnel selection departments of the different sport entities, as well as to promote equity policies at any organizational level.
