A woman holds a sign that reads, "Equal Pay" during "A Day Without A Woman" demonstration on March 8, 2017 in Miami.Iceland was recognized as the most gender-equal country for the 11th year in a row. Other Nordic countries — including Norway, Finland and Sweden — and Nicaragua rounded out the top five. Yemen ranked lowest on the list.
But the report says women in the U.S. are"relatively well-represented" in middle and high management roles, although not in"the very top business positions," making up just 21.7 percent of corporate managing board members. And the U.S. fared well in education, where the enrollment rate for female students exceeded 90 percent across education levels, and women outnumbered men in tertiary education.
In addition, a"lack of care infrastructure" means women spend at least twice as much time on care and voluntary work as men do, and a"lack of access to capital" often keeps women from entrepreneurship and other workforce opportunities.
Pft, Life as we know it will not be the same by that year. This planet won’t be around as it is. What a dumb statement. 257 years none of us will be alive
Are you assuming their gender?
BS and you know it. This survey simply compares overall pay. It doesn't separate careers, tenure, education, etc....it's down to as little as 3% difference.
If a transgendered individual cuts off their member, do they have to take a pay cut as well?🤔
To have equal pay... they might have to get a pay cut.
The year...is 2277. The liberals finally won. The world falls apart as women are given basic humanrights, healthcare is a right, and corporations are regulated by elected officials.. Can we survive in this dystopian future? COMING THIS SUMMER... Cyberpunk 2277.
If by 'equal pay' you mean women and men behaving exactly the same with regards to work, I would prefer the differences in pay increased! Remember: Pro-corporate (which is what 'equal pay' means) is anti-family. There is only so much time in the day and kids should come 1st!
ok - then it will be easier to just reduce men's salary.
This is a lie. I suggest if you're being paid less by an employer because you're a woman, sue them.
to get equal pay that will also mean women will have the same amount of workplace deaths and injuries doing those type of jobs.
Do the same work, get the same pay.
this report is very inaccurate
When do we want it?! We want it NOW!
Women are overpaid.
