Gender wage gap widens for the first time in two decades

Sep 12, 2024
Men who work full-time year-round saw their wages rise by 3%, while women who work full-time year-round only saw their wages go up 1.5%.
This is the first time the gender pay gap has widened in a statistically significant way since 2003.
