how abt "describe likely changes in earnings over time for an individual"
People’s earnings tend to increase over time because:1. there may be a pay scale and people move up 1 point on the scale each year
2. Loyalty
3. Experience
4. Cost of living. Increase to compensate for inflation
5. Promotion
6. More skills and qualifications
= Earnings of skilled people tend to be higher than unskilled - Reward for long training (education required)
- Skilled people are scarcer than unskilled so the price of their labour (wage) is higher
= Male and female - Men on average tend to earn more than woman on average
- Sex and discrimination
Women often have ‘career gaps’ to have/raise children. This puts them behind men in terms of experience and promotion
Many women tend to work part time hours
Many women are concentrated into traditionally low paid work such as secretarial, retail, hotel and catering
- Agriculture/ manufacture/services
