I investigated this possibility, using a large survey of federal employees. Overall, women were only 60% as likely as men to work overtime. Gender differences in both child care responsibilities and educational levels helped explain this pattern, as did differences in job demands. Among college-educated professionals and administrators, men's and women's overtime rates were quite similar, especially among employees at the same grade levels. Working overtime does appear to speed career advancement, especially for women, but overtime appeared to play a trivial role in gender inequality in pay, especially among the employees most likely to reach the top. - Reproduced  aWomen in the civil service  aAmerican Review of Public Administration  a40695  c40695d40695  00104070aIIPAbIIPAd2018-07-19hVolume no: 29, Issue no: 1pAR41070r2018-07-19w2018-07-19yAR
