Talk:Gender pay gap

message: Non-adjusted gender pay gap is defined in this article, so would make sense to also define adjusted gender pay gap. 75.134.150.144 (talk) 05:23, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: @75.134.150.144 I think it already does an adequate job at this: "after adjusting for occupation and hours worked, the gap is changed to 11%." —Panamitsu (talk) 01:40, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Defining adjusted gender pay gap 

message: American Express reported that worldwide women made 6.7 percent more than men for same jobs. https://fortune.com/2022/10/31/american-express-pay-transparency-salary-ranges-job-listings/
"American Express is one of the few major companies to disclose its unadjusted pay gap, a blunt assessment of the difference in wages it pays to employees based on gender and race. Globally, female employees made 106.7% of the median pay for men last year." 2600:1700:D591:5F10:E1FA:104:4147:F4D7 (talk) 15:56, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: @2600:1700:D591:5F10:E1FA:104:4147:F4D7 I have no idea what that means. The source hasn't made it clear what that means, either. It almost looks like a typo. —Panamitsu (talk) 01:38, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

thread_title: Wiki Education assignment: Intro to Women's, Gender and Sexuality Studies-17

message: The last edit while certainly making some improvements, has also just straight up removed content, including the definition of the article subject. If nothing else, the lede sentence should be brought back into the style of Wikipedia. But I would suggest that the rest of the article be also looked over. It sounds a bit preachy as it stands. And the section about the sex ratio in China doesn't seem quite relevant. 94.44.251.251 (talk) 16:23, 18 May 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, this new intro doesn't sound very encyclopedic. It's editorializing when it says "...it is essential to consider the adjusted pay gap." After "the adjusted average salary for women in the United States may be 99% of the average salary for men," it cites the AAUW's "The Simple Truth About The Gender Wage Gap", which does not contain any such statistic. I think the editor meant to cite the Payscale report. I think this edit should be reverted – it's mostly summarizing/editorializing what was already there.

message: Why is there no criticism of the gender gap when there are economists who refute the idea?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5.170.44.134 (talk) 01:25, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: @5.170.44.134 There is already a bit of information on motherhood, which I guess is what you're talking about. Even when not all workers are all childless, women tend to earn less which is explained in the article. It'd be better if you provide your sources. —Panamitsu (talk) 01:32, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

message: I want to add more information on the causes of the gender pay gap.
'The BBC faced scrutiny after publishing the salaries of its employees earning at least £150,000 a year, with particular focus on gender disparitieshttps://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-42833551. Female presenters raised concerns about earning significantly less than male counterparts. However, broader data suggests that the BBC's gender pay gap may not reflect the broader labor market. Studies indicate minimal differences in pay between men and women with similar roles and levels within companies. The issue appears to stem more from women being in lower-ranking positions at lower-paying organizationshttps://www.economist.com/business/2017/07/27/the-wage-gap-between-men-and-women-varies-depending-on-job-types. Nonetheless, discrepancies at the top levels of organizations, including the BBC, are not uncommon. In Spain and Germany, top-ranking women earn considerably less than their male counterparts, likely because men dominate the upper echelons and work more hours on average. https://www.pewresearch.org/social-trends/2023/03/01/the-enduring-grip-of-the-gender-pay-gap/.
When the gender pay gap is adjusted for jobs at the same level, company and function, it seems like the disparities almost disappear in staff and professional positions, the ones that remain can be explained by the average hours worked and perhaps gender discrimination.https://www.economist.com/business/2017/07/27/the-wage-gap-between-men-and-women-varies-depending-on-job-types' I also wanted to add the 2 images that my source (https://www.economist.com/graphic-detail/2017/08/01/are-women-paid-less-than-men-for-the-same-work, no paywall link: https://archive.is/wM302) uses.
