不論是依賴或世界體系觀點對於女性員工在非核心國家濟發展過程中勞動報酬的決 定過程較少提及。當學者討論產業的發展、跨國公司的影響、或是工人階級的形成時，工人 做為經濟發展得以進行的主體卻似乎被忽略掉了，遑論女性員工。本文的目的即是希望結合 發展理論和新結構論的觀點研究出口工業中女性員工勞動市場的待遇和決定過程。在方法上 則是同時分析其僚產業部門與男性的情況，以便比較。本文利用兩種不同類型的資料進行驗 證的工作。首先是使用集體的資料，在產業的層次上對不同部門之間薪資的決定因素進行動 態分析。第二類則是以個人資料為主所進行的迴歸分析。實證分析的結果顯示，在過去十年 間，即使控制了個人因素及一些產業變項，女性的平均薪資仍普遍不如男性。運用經濟區隔 的概念，作者發現不同的經濟部門之間的薪資的確存有顯著的差異。相對於其僚部門，出口 部門的薪資是最低的，而女性在出口部門內的平均薪資又低於男性，且這項差距還有隨時間 擴大的趨勢。對個人資料進行迴歸分析的結果顯示，年齡對男性的薪資效果大於女性，女性 單身的正面效果則大於男性。大專學歷在公營和出口部門中對男女薪資都有重要的影響。作 者發現女性大專畢業的在出口部門中所佔的比例遠不如男性。這是因為具有高學歷的女性不 願去出口產業中就業，或是雇主無意雇用這類女性，還是另有其它原因，應是值得深究的。

　　　　　The importance of female labor force in the process of economic development has been understudied in previous labor market research. While we were having better knowledge about the change of industrial structure in peripheral economies, the penetration of foreign capital into developing countries, and the structuration of class system in newly-developed regions, the impacts of these dynamic changes on workers', especially women working in the sector manufacturing goods for export, economic returns received only little attention . This paper intends to integrate some propositions from both dependency and labor market theories to examine the wage payments of female workers in the export sector and the determination process by using Taiwanese's data. The empirical results show that workers in export industries on average receive the lowest level of earnings among all industries and female workers earned less that men in the export sector as well as in other sectors. Working in the export sector proves to have double disadvantages of Taiwanese women in terms of economic compensation. The author also found that having college degree has a positive impact on hourly wages for both male and female workers. However, college-graduated women are least likely to be found in the export than in other industrial sectors in Taiwan.
