British gender wage gap 2017

Once again, that explosion of unconscious bias against women when they turn 40, excluding them from promotions, pay rises and wherever possible paying them less for the same job. I do not know anyone can work that out unconsciously when people struggle to get people’s ages right within a decade these days even when they know the person for many months. That is before you introduce the difficulty of judging ages across racial groups. At a minimum, the beauty premium in the labour market, that is the premium for looking younger for women must be enormous.

The Sunday Star Times reported today that
The Government has ordered Statistics NZ to begin measuring the country’s gender pay gap… new Statistics Minister James Shaw believed there was an onus on his department to gather the data, so the Government could fix it.
It was too early to know exactly how it was going to be measured, Shaw said in a written statement.
Not sure to what to make of this because extensive data is already collected.
