Germany - Performance and Pay Study

The fact that on average women earn less than men is not necessarily the result of discrimination: when given a choice between a fixed salary and performance-related pay, women choose the former far more often than men, even if they could earn more by opting for the latter. This is the result of a study carried out by the Institute for the Study of Labour and the University of Bonn.

German women prefer fixed salaries, men performance-related pay
