Gender equality in the workplace has come a long way in developed nations. This is largely due to equal
access to education. On average, women in developed nations are at least as educated as men. In the US,
women can expect to earn about 80% of their male counterparts' salaries. In developing nations, where
two-thirds of illiterate people are female, the gender gap is much wider.
Throughout the world, women are still expected to be the primary caregivers of their children. Some
women accept lower pay in exchange for family-friendly hours. Responsibilities at home may prevent
women from seeking higher-paying jobs that require business travel. In some cultures, women are expected
to marry by a certain age. Focusing on family before job training makes it difficult for women to achieve
equality in the workplace. In Ethiopia, women have achieved greater success in the workplace since the
minimum age of marriage was moved from 15 to 18.
While women in the US hold about 80% of the jobs in the health industry, males are much more likely to
hold the high-paying positions. Gender discrimination laws have been introduced in many parts of the
world but are not always implemented.
