A labour market is seen as segmented if it "consists of various sub-groups with little or no crossover capability". Segmentation can result in different groups, for example men and women, receiving different wages for the same work. The 19th century Irish political economist John Elliott Cairnes referred to this phenomenon as that of "noncompeting groups."
