Women on average earn $25,534 less than men every year, according to the Workplace Gender Equality Agency's latest gender pay gap report.The gender pay gap has narrowed slightly, but men still earn more than women in every industry and occupation
Women's average full-time base salary across all industries and occupations was 15 per cent, or $15,144 a year less than men's. The WGEA's data is based on 4,943 reports from employers, covering more than 4 million employees, for the reporting period April 1, 2019 to March 31, 2020.And it excludes CEOs, with just 10 of Australia's top 200 listed companies having a female chief executive.
Ms Lyons said employers who did not take action to address pay gaps and increase women's representation would fall behind. But the pay gap is also influenced by women and men working in different industries and jobs. Women dominate part-time jobs and casual roles . The report recorded the largest decrease in the other executives/general managers category. But there was still a pay gap of $67,768 between men and women there.There has, however, been a narrowing of the gap in five of the seven occupational categories. The only occupation with an increased gender pay gap this year was labourer, with a 0.9 percentage point rise — a gap of $15,099 a year.
The gender pay gap in the most heavily female-dominated industry — healthcare and social assistance — remained virtually unchanged .The gender pay gap in the second most female-dominated industry — education and training — went up 0.4 percentage points to 9.2 per cent, or a $11,562 difference annually.
However, the number of organisations implementing formal policies and strategies on remuneration with specific pay equity objectives is increasing.
Onlyfans must be balancing it out
Just identify as a man ... oh spend 80 hours a week working.
What complete garbage. Lunatic, unsupportable identity politics. fakenews
There is no wage gap, ffs. It's illegal, at least here in OZ. All arguements to the contrary are made by political hacks to advance own power and get support from brain-dead people.
they are not good to do the same JOB as good as the men a few (exemptions) the tomboys how with out shame ASK for the same pay ?
It’s already been debunked the gender pay gay . Stop abc
Analyse pay by individual preferences, rather than by Women and Men (identity group). You will find people who prioritise the amount of money they make above: - A balanced lifestyle - Doing a job they like - Enjoying life - Having children On Average make more Money No Bias Here
Still pushing this bullshit, ABC? You know, you're not actually helping women by doing this.
If you earn $250K+/year then cut the BS and start helping those who actually need it.
What... for the same job ? That doesn't even make sense, there are actual laws in place to prevent that. Also women spend a ton, where is the 'gender equality' there ? Imagine being so dumb that you think it's 'empowering' to work in a cubicle, whilst raising a family is bad.
“It does not compare like for like roles.” NassimKhadem so your whole article is bullshit.
At less hours. In safer jobs. Also apples deserve equivalent vitamin C. Orange privilege has led to a massive vitamin C imbalance among fruits.
I assume the ABC is doing it's bit by paying it's female graduates $800,000 a year just as it does to the male managing director.
The only reason men earn more is because men make up the majority of CEO, CFO and other high paying jobs. The gender pay gap is once again proven to be a myth.
Not comparing apples with apples. I run nearly 600 people. No truth to this ridiculous and monotonous claim. Stick it up your arse.
GIGO.
How about you give retail worker a pay fucking rise kept the country going. After a fortnight wr walk away with 1000 you try survive with that
And people claim it’s a myth. And by people I mean men 😡
I'm in health care. what health services have a different pay rate for men❓ I've got lots of friends who are teachers - what's the different pay rates for men vs women❓❓ A child in hospitalality- show me the difference ‼️
How can something which doesn’t exist ‘narrow’?
The challenge for publishers of this assertion is to compare apples with apples.
This is feminist whinging and victimhood at its best. When was the last time you saw a woman working on a construction site or road crew other than holding a stop go sign? Women refuse to do hard work outside! Can’t leave air conditioned offices & malls!
Already have equal pay for the 2 genders in Australia! Equal hourly pay for same work! These communists want a retail assistant to be paid same as an engineer! We r all grown ups. We know what pay will be when we choose our jobs! Superannuation is divided in a divorce. paygap
Your sustained anti-male, anti-white, Left activist, victim creating, divisive, propaganda outlet needs to be excised from our tax system.
This has been debunked so many times.. What these dickheads should be looking at is the gender gap in work place accidents.
Women earn the same for the same role with the same qualifications and experience. In the public sector it CANNOT be different. Men are also passed over in senior executive roles in the private sector to meet WGEA diversity targets through penis=no hires. You are lying.
No information in this story about whether the gap has narrowed because average male earnings are down more than average female earnings.
False. Fake news. Defund the abc
More bullshit from our ABC.
And do half as less . Glued to the Seat .
Bullshit. I've never worked with a woman who has earned less than me for doing the the same hours and same job.
I still think its fake as every women I know doesn't get less than men and if it true then why not show what companies are doing this when its doing the exact same role
Earnings! Women earn less, their wages are identical. Please stop the lies!
The Australian Operations Manager where I work is female and earns a bucketload more than me. Is she being paid more due to her gender, or is she being paid more because our respective roles attract different salary rates? genderpaygapmyth
The Australian Operations Manager where I work as a Payroll Officer is female and earns a bucketload more than me. Is she being paid more due to her gender, or is she being paid more because our respective roles attract different salary rates? genderpaygapmyth
Here we go again with this🤦🏻♂️
Broken studies
Gender pay gap unless it's a like for like comparison.
Not all women want to work as much as men but the 'gender wage gap' keeps being pushed to push them into the workforce anyway because it's good for GDP.
Maybe the communists were right all along. All wages should be set by a central government. Women & men should be made to do the same work regardless of gender, wages should reflect our efficacy in achieving gender parity regardless of roles, markets and free will. Fair’s fair!
How many women die at work vs men? The death gap!
Bullshit figures, women and men doing the same job, receive the same pay 🤷♂️
Only one way to get rid of this, make it so all people regardless retire at 75, nothing for anyone, no family tax, family leave etc and companies are not allowed to record a person sex on any system or form. Then is person A vs B paid on contributions and results
“Women”? “WOMEN” 😡😡😡 Try “persons with cervixes” How could you be so un-inclusive DefundTheAbc
I’m thankful I have a job
Why don't these reports ever show the difference in hourly rate for people doing the same role at a workplace? Surely this would be the most accurate way to judge the gap. Can the ABC name and shame the awards where pay is based on gender? How did union's allow this to happen?
Gaslighting us all. Title for my new hit single that is.
Is there any leftist partisan ideology the ABC does not push?
As a pure leftie even I can admit the gender pay gap is a load of BS. Look at the middle East and Africa if you want a real issue to fight.
I attribute 100% of my financial security to surrendering the real guts and skill of running my buisiness to a powerful skilled woman. Thanks Karen
Quickly passing over the statement that “It does not compare like for like roles”. And while we’re at it how is the gender pay gap at WGEA given they’re the group making all the noise.
There is no gender wage gap, there’s a gender earnings gap which is not the same thing. It’s against the law to pay women less than men for doing the same job.
I wonder what the pay gap is when comparing like for like roles? Obviously, hazardous and thus high paying jobs tend to employ more men, so a trivial comparison across the entire workforce is meaningless.
Quick tell all the bosses they can hire woman at a discount .. will save them a fortune
Wouldn’t have anything to do with them working less hours and choosing lower paying jobs would it?
But...but... gender is a social construct!
Now show the wage gap between men bricklayers and women bricklayers.
Gender pay gap is complete rubbish. Everyone who knows what they are talking about knows it.
