The Racial Wage Gap Between Black And White Workers Is Getting Worse Pay for black workers lags behind that of white peers more than it did in 1979.
Women are almost half of the workforce. They are the equal, if not main, breadwinner in four out of ten families. They receive more college and graduate degrees than men. Yet, on average, women continue to earn considerably less than men.In 2014, female full-time workers made only 79 cents for every dollar earned by men, a gender wage gap of 21 percent.ccording to our research, if change continues at the same slow pace as it has done for the past fifty years, it will take 44 yearsâor until 2059 âfor women to finally reach pay parity. IWPRâs annual fact sheet on the gender wage gap by occupation shows that women earn less than men in almost any occupation.
