1 What are you doing to ensure your male and female employees have equal pay?
OK, so this is nothing new – we know that for seriously messed up reasons, some employers will pay a man more money than you just because of what he has between his legs. And while women comprise roughly 47 per cent of all employees in Australia, they take home on average $251.20 less than men each week. In fact, the national gender ‘pay gap’ is 15.3 per cent and it has remained stuck between 15 and 19 per cent for the past two decades*, which is why you need to know your new employer is on the side of getting us gals the pay we deserve. Sure money chats can be awks, but asking this at the start of your employment will ensure you have a more transparent relationship going forward. To educate yourself further, check out Wgea.gov.au.
