The difference in salaries report, as I understand it, comes from a PUMA site, not a credible news organization. Am I right? I could not find it reported in ANY credible news organization.
And, if it were true, that would be absolutely meaningless without further information.
Once again, it appears people don't understand the concept of "average." If there was one lower paid woman who is, say a receptionist, among a larger group of professional staff, that would bring down the average for women as a whole, but it would say NOTHING about commitment to equal pay.
Yep. Take a room of men and women with equal salaries; if Bill Gates walks into the room, the average income of the males becomes a hell of a lot higher. That's why average is not a good measure of these things.
