Sexual Minorities, Earnings, and Career Development: Insights From Economics

Jasper B. van Loo

Tonette S. Rocco

Florida International University

The problem and the solution. The purpose of this article is to (a) present insights from economics on earnings of sexual minorities and (b) discuss the implications for human resource development in terms of career development. In economic research, the focus has been on finding earnings differentials between sexual minorities and heterosexuals. One issue with this approach is whether the standard analytical techniques available in economics, can be applied to the earnings of sexual minorities. A second issue is the relevance of earnings of sexual minorities to career development.

Key Words: sexual orientation • economics • sexual minorities • human capital theory
