Gender pay gap
In May 2024, the gender pay gap, based on mean weekly ordinary time earnings of full-time adult employees, was 11.5%, down from 13.0% in May 2023.
Compared to 20 years ago (May 2004), the gender pay gap has fallen 3.7 percentage points (from 15.2%).
The gender pay gap is the difference in the earnings of men and women, expressed as a proportion of men's earnings. Analysing the gender pay gap is complex and there is no single measure that can provide a complete picture. See Gender indicators for the range of ABS gender pay gap measures. Mean weekly ordinary time earnings of full-time adult employees (excluding salary sacrifice) is used here as this has traditionally been the most commonly cited measure of the gender pay gap.
