Wage difference between men and women is the theme developed in this document.
Through the document several interpretations can be made.
These charts describe two points.
1 First of all, we notice that the full-time workers doesn’t stop decreasing.
First of all, the line chart shows that the average female wage as a percentage of the male wage tends to decrease.
Then, the curve concerning the category of all the workers decreases too.
This trend concerns both full-time workers and all workers and shows that the pay differential between men and women has increased.
However this gap is bigger for all workers because the average female wage as a percentage of the average male wage is lower regarding to the second line. So this means that the pay differential is bigger for part-time jobs.
2Besides, the averages of salary are very significant.
We notice that the average wage with child isn’t the same for a man that a woman. A man gets a salary 100 % whereas a woman gets 91 % of the salary, is a 9 % decrease.
Furthermore, the average of salary when a woman to a child is even bigger, a man gets 100 % and a woman 67 % is a 33 % distance.
Finally, the salary becomes again a little more interesting when the children grow but there is a distance from 28 % salary.
Then the histogram shows that this gap is more significant when women get children.
Before motherhood, women get 91% of men wage in average.
Once they have children the difference increases by 24 points.
Indeed, the female average wage with children represents only 67% of the male one.
However their salary improves a bit when children get older. It increases again by 5 points and the difference gets a little bit less significant. When workers’ children grow up women earn around 28% less than men.
We can deduct several interpretations from it:
