Summary/Abstract: The differences in salaries between men and women are a matter discussed in social and economic policy, both at the international as well as national and regional levels. In order to make effective decisions in favor of eliminating these inequalities we should have information on their actual size. This article aims to determine the differences in salaries between men and women and attempt to identify the factors most affecting their size. As a method of analysis, the Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition based on econometric models was used. The study of the structure of wages conducted by public statistics was data source.
