When will the gender wage gap end?
A new study shows that the gender wage gap still exists in Great Britain, despite women working percentages being higher.
The study points that women earn less than men worldwide. Even in more affluent countries, especially in the Scandinavian countries which are often presented as more progressive for women.
In the UK, 60% of the key workers are women, 40% of which are being paid less than 10€ in an hour. One of the searchers believes that the cause for that is favoring men over women due to their responsibilities for their families.
