March 14 is Equal Pay Day, the symbolic date indicating how far into the year women would need to work to earn the same amount of pay male workers earned the prior year. This year, the day is underscored by the dour fact that the pay gap has barely budged in two decades. to the Pew Research Center. That indicates women are only slightly ahead of where they were in 2002, when they earned 80 cents for every $1 earned by male workers, the research organization said.
The pay gap is partly a reflection of"women not being encouraged to take the same jobs as men, maybe male-dominated jobs like construction or even in the financial industry," noted Hannah Wardenburg, associate wealth adviser at Hightower Wealth Advisors in St. Louis."They are in the administrative side of work or in education, and we know they aren't compensated the same as in the male-dominated industries.
"They see in their professions, especially after a liberal arts degree, that there is a ceiling on their pay," Schwab told CBS MoneyWatch.
If that were true businesses would hire only women. Get your liberal heads out of your liberal asses. You just get more shitfaced with every false narrative.
So if a man transitions into a woman, do they automatically take a cut in pay?
You can bet they are NOT taking everything into account, Like experience, job, time off etc. LBH, this is for Political Gain the dems will lie as always and blame the gop.
Are they mad they're paid in coins I don't get this
If true why not hire only females?
Well the efing gov takes 1/3 of from both so there
There is plenty of data. Burden of proof? Seriously? We live in a country which allows systematically degrading and dominating women.
Did your report also show that for black women it's $0.64, for Latina women it's $0.54, and for indigenous women it's $0.51? PayEquity WomensRights
Why don’t businesses only hire women? If companies could cut costs by 18% for every dollar they spend on employees, why wouldn’t they do it?
Also… women only worked 78% as much as men and at almost none of the difficult dirty and dangerous job fields.
this is complete bullshit. made up figures and includes housewives as a stat. this is nothing more than feminazi propaganda.
False reporting? Aren’t there other reasons for the differences than gender?
Ladies need to step it up.
it's the work they go into, the house next to mine spent the winter being fixed up not a damn one of the people doing it was a woman
'There's a Wage Gap!' Said the Barista to the Engineer
On like for like jobs? Or because of the fields chosen?
And Biden's main concern..How to make sure our children get better pay......
But according to liberals democrats, leftist & Biden administration there is no such thing as a 'Woman'. No one can admit to what a woman is, they're allowing Transgenders to compete in women's sports, etc. So there is no wage gap because there is no such thing as a women!!!
When did this myth become popular again? We know full and well why wine earn less on average. And sexism has nothing to do with it.
bullsh*t
How much can she lift bro. Any woman that can do what I do physically will be paid equally to me.
I’d say time for reparations!!!
A penny a decade.
WittyHendrix OK & aren’t those numbers just for white workers? Aren’t the disparities even greater for POC, what are those numbers - did I miss it in the article?
Thanks? to Affirmative Action and Metoo Business.
Does this include trans women?
Should say 1902
Debunked... Yawn...Zzzzz
The controlled gender pay gap (equal jobs) is $0.99 for every $1 men make. Stop this nonsense already…
Are we back on this wage myth BS again....
Women making careers more important than motherhood is the one of the reasons we have low birth rates and need to import citizens.
Money that is stolen and put in someone else paycheck instead of them. Even the educated women.
Men work average 65 hours a week. Women work an average of 38 hours a week. Of course there yearly salary would be lower they work less.
Quick question... how rhis was calculated? By yearly income or hourly wages?
The wage gap myth has been debunked. Try again.
This is not real people. Wake up!
Nice to see you hid the reason as to why in article, affriming gender preferences. Women tend to pick jobs dealing with people and men tend to take jobs dealing with things. People jobs like the ones CBS mentioned dont pay amazingly. Thing jobs like the ones mentioned ... do.
This needs a Twitter Fact Check. Absolute lies! Women on average choose careers that earn less than men. There are far more women in education than men and teachers get paid crap. And there are far more men in engineering than women, and engineers make more money than teachers.
Lies
Women only want to be a CEO of an already establish company. Who wouldn't want that. None want to be roofers or plumbers.
What's more empowering, telling women they are victims of a system OR telling them to pursue what they love, and to work hard and be the best at it?... why does this news organization seem to want to push the former narrative instead of the latter?
Lies lies lies.
Are most TEACHERS women? In elementary schools male teachers are about as rare as unicorns. So are many of the perspectives taught pro-female and/or anti-male agendas? Ever hear of a military draft for women? Ever hear of a man getting Welfare to raise his family?
You're ignoring all of the life insurance proceeds they get when their husband dies off sooner.
Men and women don't always have the same jobs though.
This BS has been debunked so many times it just pitiful.
Lame. Stop peddling this lie!
There are some faulty logic behind such a politically correct general claims. You can also make a similar general claim that Asian NBA players only make a fraction of cents against black NBA players.
Get better at negotiating
There is no gap in apples to apples comparisons.
We should demand to have equal numbers of women plumbers, electricians, riggers, firefighters, diesel mechanics, bricklayers, roofers, miners, loggers, Derrick operators, lineman, crane operators
Must we force more women into higher paying professions. In grade school we were taught that in countries like China people couldn’t choose their jobs but were assigned them by the government. Not sure if that was true. Is that what we should do here to ensure “equal pay”?
Men are a whole lot more productive than women, and it isn't even close.
Fake
Now do workplace deaths
How much did they actually work?
Meanwhile……..
They should get better jobs
Overpaid now.
Fake statistic
It's because they bit the apple!!... -make the replies good twitter...
I’ll bet men get paid less at Hooters…
Oh please….
Misleading. You’re not mentioning the reason why this is. The reason is women choose different career paths and choose to have children, instead of working.
The 'pay gap' is a dead horse you really need to stop beating since it doesn't even exist.
There is no such thing as a 'gender pay gap'. Literally no one is paid less for the same job because of gender. Yet, women have to work less hours to take care of kids, and they are less likely to be promoted to higher-paid roles because of that. That is called 'glass ceiling'.
.82 : 1 for the same employment positions, hours , conditions? Bull 💩.
Real journalists would want ask “WHY”
This is a myth to drive division in the population.
These pay gap studies don't account for different types of jobs or for hours worked per week (men average slightly more)
Not in these fields, if they work the same hours:
But they spent 82 cents of every man's dollar earned.
Feminist propaganda, pushed relentlessly even though it was thoroughly debunked more than 30 years ago. 😨
Now do hours worked relative to total income. Obviously, if a person works fewer hours they're going to earn less. What you're failing at saying is, women WORKED MORE HOURS than in 2002. At NO POINT IN MY WORKING CAREER did any woman get paid less than me for the same work.
Asian women have the highest average starting salaries post-college. When compare salaries by profession, time served and average hours worked, there is NO pay gap. Stop telling half the story and start studying STEM like Asian women do.
Omitting facts for a headline. Trash.
Women 'lose out' but gain by collecting their husband's social security, insurance, pensions, converted investments, etc. as men work longer, at more dangerous jobs and die younger than women. Male death creates female comfort. Stop telling half the story please.
lies
Let’s check with Pelosi and Warren how much they scam… I mean how much they make?
And what are lawmakers doing about this? As far as I'm concerned, this is discrimination.
