Age-productivity patterns in talent occupations for men and women
Motivation
What is this ”talent”?
Two cumulative conditions:
education level: at least tertiary
occupation: one of the three top ISCO levels
legislators, senior officials and managers;professionals;technicians and associate professionals

Age-productivity patterns in talent occupations for men and women
Motivation
And why this group is important?
Doctors and lawyers in the USA:
in the 60’s: 94% were white men;
now: it is just 62%.
Hsieh, Hurst, Jones and Klenow (2013):
Barriers for women and blacks in accessing ”talent” occupation loweredpotential US economy output by 12%.

Age-productivity patterns in talent occupations for men and women
Insights from the literature
Gender wage gap
Glass ceilings
size of a gap - different along the distribution
talent occupation = highest earnings
Family role
consequences of child bearing and family responsibilities

Age-productivity patterns in talent occupations for men and women
Insights from the literature
Age, cohort and time effects
Interpretation (Thornton et al. 1997)
age - individual productivity
time - inflation rate and average prodcuctivity
cohort - transition

Age-productivity patterns in talent occupations for men and women
Conclusions
Conclusions
1 ”Talent” occupations in general have a steeper age productivity pattern.
2 However, talented females earnings grow slower.
3 Divergence starts in the age of 30 - which might be associated with childbearing and family responsibilities.
