New Zealand does much better than most on the gender wage gap for full-time workers.
Figure 1: gender wage, % of median male wage, full-time employees, USA, UK, Australia and New Zealand, 1970 – 2012
Source: Earnings and wages – Gender wage gap – OECD Data.
The gender wage gap in figure 1 is unadjusted and defined as the difference between median earnings of men and women relative to median earnings of men. Data refer to full-time employees.
I never found it terribly helpful to include part-time workers, such as in an hourly measure of the gender wage gap because of a larger trade-off between cash wages and work life balance in part-time jobs.
