TURİZM SEKTÖRÜNDE CİNSİYETE DAYALI ÜCRET AYRIMCILIĞI

Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, sektördeki Oaxaca ve Cotton ayrımcılık modellerini kullanarak, Türkiye turizm sektöründe cinsiyete dayalı ücret ayrımcılığı olup olmadığını, varsa hangi boyutta olduğunu açığa çıkarmaktır. Çalışmada, Türkiye İstatistik Kurumu (TÜİK) Hane Halkı İşgücü Anketi’ne bağlı olarak 4677 çalışanın (895’i kadın ve 3782’si erkek olmak üzere) bireysel verisi kullanılmıştır. Katılımcılar, turizm sektöründeki konaklama hizmetleri, seyahat acenteleri ve yiyecek-içecek hizmetleri ile tur operatörlüğü çalışanlarından oluşmaktadır. Oaxaca ve Cotton modellerini analiz etmek amacıyla En Küçük Kareler Yöntemi uygulanmıştır. Avrupa Birliği tarafından ekonomik etkinlikleri sınıflandırma amacıyla belirlenen NACE Rev.2 Kodu, sektörleri tasnif etmek için kullanılmıştır. Analiz sonuçlarına göre, Türkiye turizm sektöründe cinsiyete dayalı ücret ayrımcılığının büyük ölçüde geçerli olduğu görülmektedir. Bu çalışmanın sonuçları, bu alandaki uygulayıcı ve araştırmacılar için de yararlı sonuçlar sunmaktadır. Ayrıca, bu çalışma Türkiye turizm sektöründe, hem elde edilen sonuçlar hem de kullanılan yöntem açısından ilk (birincil) olma özelliği taşıdığından, bundan sonraki çalışmalara katkı sağlayacak, öncü bir niteliğe de sahiptir.

WAGE DISCRIMINATION BETWEEN WOMEN AND MEN IN THE TURKISH TOURISM

The main purpose of this study is to reveal whether and to what extent discrimination in wages in the Turkish tourism is by using Oaxaca and Cotton’s discrimination models in the sector. In the study, the individual data of a total of 4677 employees were used, 3782 of which were male and 895 of which were female, based on the Household Labor Survey of Turkish Statistics Institute. People working in the accommodation services, travel agencies and food and beverage facilities in the tourism sector as well as tour operators were involved in the research. The Ordinary Least Squares Method was applied used in order to estimate the Oaxaca and Cotton models. NACE Rev.2 Codes, which were formed by the European Union to classify economic activities, were used to classify the sectors. As a result of the analysis undertaken, it was established that discrimination is valid largely in the Turkish tourism sector. Findings of this study also reveal useful outcomes for practitioners and researchers working in the field. The study is a first in the Turkish tourism sector, and will contribute to future studies, while constituting a pioneering piece of work and/ or study in the field. Both the findings and the method employed are considered to be the first in the sector.
