Abstract Recently, the Chilean government embarked on a phase of redefining fiscal policies with the aim of addressing gender pay equity (Equidad Salarial). In this context, this paper emphasises the crucial role that a disaggregated and general equilibrium approach can play in supporting the Chilean policymakers, particularly in the formulation of policies for the reduction of gender pay gap in specific sectors and the integration of female employment.

Abstract The continuous evolution of the institutional and regulatory framework requires the development of analysis instruments able to support the policy maker in designing and evaluating the impact of specific policy measures for the achievement of selected targets. With this intent, the MACGEM-IT model is developed to measure the aggregate and disaggregated, direct and indirect impacts of economic policy proposals within the economic system.
