"Gender equality at work has barely improved over the past ten years, with paid
work opportunities held back by women doing the bulk of unpaid work in the
home, new research shows.
Stubborn gaps in pay and career progression, alongside deep division between
the types of jobs women and men do, are holding back business and the economy,
despite decades of efforts by governments, employers and unions.
To help understand and address these gender gaps, the Australian Centre for
Gender Equality and Inclusion at Work has developed a unique tool to measure
and track equality at work.
The first
Gender Equality @ Work Index provides a comprehensive, national
snapshot of gender equality at work over ten years.
Our research shows many of the unequal features of the Australian labour
market, such as the concentration of men and women in different industries and
occupations, have barely shifted in three decades."
