New research shows women still earn 18% less than men – with the disparity widening markedly after having children. Share your experiences
We’ve come a long way in terms of the gender pay gap, but new research shows women still earn 18% less than men on average.
The gap, down from 23% in 2003 and 28% in 1993, has been highlighted by the Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS). It also notes that the difference in pay widens markedly after childbirth (a 30% gap 10 years after giving birth) – with concerns being that women then miss out on pay rises and promotions. It’s a notion supported by a separate report on Tuesday which found male managers are 40% more likely to be promoted than female ones.
