The Workplace Dynamics of Wage Inequality: Exploring the Impact of Organizational Demography.
Article in Work and occupations, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This article examines the gender-ethnic wage gaps in diverse Israeli workplaces, focusing on the impact of workplace demographic composition. Using linked employer-employee longitudinal data covering the entire Israeli private sector from 1996 to 2015, I demonstrate the importance of distinguishing between the representation of marginalized groups in the total workforce and their presence in high-status positions. Increased representation in high-status roles strongly benefits same-group members in lower-status positions, consistent with theories of tokenism and relational inequality. In contrast, total workforce representation shows a nonlinear pattern: slight gains at low levels, followed by wage declines as the shares of Arab men and Jewish women rise-supporting threat and competition theories. Essentially, the study introduces a 'relational measure' of workforce composition, demonstrating that the compositions of the total workforce and high-status positions intersect, influencing income distribution at work. This measure illustrates how wage effects differ across demographic regimes, with nuanced group-specific pay outcomes that traditional composition measures cannot capture. Cross-group dynamics and integrated workplaces employing Arab women are analyzed in the final part of the paper. The findings have important practical implications, as they highlight the role of workplaces in generating and mitigating wage inequality and call for better-targeted diversity policies.
