Abstract
Since discrimination against women in the workplace is generally regarded as having a negative impact on quality of life, systematic managerial efforts to prevent such discrimination have been enforced. However, there are very few studies on whether or how this discrimination affects the subjective well-being in Asia where the unequal treatment of women has been traditionally accepted. Our study examines whether perceived/experienced discrimination against women consistently influences two subjective kinds of well-being: job satisfaction and work engagement. It will consider how the impact varies according to different dimensions of discrimination, what kinds of moderators intervene to influence the effect on subjective well-being and how they do so. Empirical findings from three-wave panel data with a sample of 5987 female workers show the negative effects of discrimination on these two forms of subjective well-being.
