I live here. All Australians are aware of these things.
That does not mean you see their pay checks
Australia's gender pay gap: why do women still earn less than men?
This source averages pay thus distorts data, does not compare worker to worker of the same job, lumps multiple jobs into the same category while ignoring those jobs are not the same nor pay the same, nor does it look at job type itself. Exactly what I expected. Manipulation of data. I
Top-tier female managers earn, on average, 26.5% less than their male counterparts, with nearly $40,000 of that difference coming from additional remuneration, including bonuses.
What type of manager? At what type of business? Doing what type of work? In what industry?
A manager at McDonald's is going to get less than a manager at a bank. Ergo averaging distorts data.
Even sectors that have a predominantly female workforce such as preschool and early childhood education have a significant pay gap. According to the WGEA, women in the preschool sector are paid on average 31.9% less than men, compared with a national gender pay gap of 15.3%.
National averages does not mean a local school must pay those wages. Ergo averaging distorts data.
In Wilkinson’s industry, television broadcasting, which is 47% female overall but 100% male at the CEO level, the full-time gender pay gap is 21.6%.
No data provided.
You read an article, nothing more. You didn't look at any study nor data.
