Promotions and Race: An Analysis of Wage Returns and Job Satisfaction Labour: Review of Labour Economics and Industrial Relations published online (24 November 2019): DOI: 10.1111/labr.12169.

As black males earn, on average, significantly less than white males, the gap in the wage returns to promotions creates a larger impact on the absolute returns. Despite the racial gap in the monetary reward to a promotion, we do not find evidence to suggest that black males are less satisfied with their job following a job promotion compared with white males. |
