STORYLINE:
The Australian government will publish the gender pay gap at large companies in a bid to improve income equality.
From Feb. 27, the pay discrepancies between male and female employees at every company with over 100 employees in Australia will be made available online under legislation aiming to improve pay transparency and female participation in the workforce.
Katy Gallagher, the Minister for Women and Minister for Finance, on Saturday told the Australian Associated Press (AAP) that the move would hold companies accountable.
According to data published by the government's Workplace Gender Equality Agency (WGEA) in November, the gender pay gap was 21.7 percent in 2023 - down from 22.8 percent in 2022.
It means that, on average, women earned 26,393 Australian dollars (17,720 U.S. dollars) less than their male colleagues in 2023.
Gallagher told the Australian Associated Press (AAP) that by publishing the data for every company the government hoped to drive action to reduce the gap.
The WGEA found that three-quarters of Australian employers had gender pay gaps in 2023 larger than 5 percent in favor of male employees.
Women made up 42 percent of all manager positions, the WGEA said, up from 41 percent in 2022.
