Are women still earning less than men?

from The Daily Aus · host The Daily Aus

The Workplace Gender Equality Agency (WGEA) released its annual pay gap report this week, which found that - on average - men still earn more than women across all industries. The agency’s gender pay gap target range for all employers is plus/minus 5%. However, its latest findings show just one in five Australian employers is meeting this target. But, it’s not all bad news, with 56% of employers improving their gender pay gap in the 2023-24 financial year, compared to the previous year. In today’s deep dive, we’ll take a closer look at these findings to check in with where Australia is at when it comes to the gender pay gap.
