The pay gap between men and women is widest between the ages of 45 and 64, according to a new report.

World Economic Forum

’s global gender gap index in 2006 but dropped to 50th place in 2021. It’s fallen from 12th to 70th in terms of economic participation and opportunity for women in the same period, despite last year ranking joint first place for educational attainment. The pay problem is accentuated by the fact that in every age group, no more than 50% of women were in full-time work in 2021, yet more than 90% of managers are working full-time. This means women are missing out on management roles, according to the report. Men over the age of 55 are twice as likely as women to be in management positions.

In the 55-plus age group, women hold about 28% of CEO and senior executive roles, according to WGEA. They are paid on average A$93,000 less than their male peers. In the 45-55 age group, the average gap is A$81,000.Policies that focus on equal access to workplace support for men and women are important for correcting the gap, WGEA director Mary Wooldridge said in a statement. These include gender-neutral parental leave policies, childcare subsidies support, and flexible work policies.

Millennial women currently working will take home just 70% of men’s earnings by the time they reach 45, if current trends continue, according to the WGA.
