The report states that the gender pay gap (19 per cent) exists due to factors like age, education, occupation, and job type.
According to a new analysis by the United Nations, women working full-time year-round are paid just 81 for every $1 earned by men on an hourly basis.
Further insights from the report revealed that the gender gap in power and leadership positions remains entrenched, and, at the current rate of progress, the next generation of women will still spend on average 2.3 more hours per day on unpaid care and domestic work than men.
