Hospital is not just a place of curing patients and saving lives but a worksite employing many medical workers, as in factories or stores. Their salaries as well as sacrifices for the work done are affected by institutional, organizational and job factors. Based on a gender perspective, the book analyzed results of questionnaire survey to over 4,000 nurses and doctors at three hospitals in Taiwan. It is found that nurses are more likely felt conflicts between job and family and reported worse health conditions than doctors, but obtained lower returns from work experiences. Skills and labor inputs characterized by the female-dominant jobs benefit little on the economic returns for nurses. While reproduction labor creates wage premiums for married male doctors, it constitutes obstacles of career prospects for both nurses and female doctors.
