Gender differences in early career job mobility and wage growth in Canada

This article discusses the main differences by gender in early career job mobility for young workers in Canada, and the potential impact of these differences on wage growth over the first 10 years of a worker's career. The study is based on two data sources that can inform researchers on differences by gender in early career job mobility for young workers and the associated impact on wage growth. The population of interest for this study consists of employed individuals aged 25 to 34 in 2005 since individuals within this age group are more likely to be out of school and working full-time.
