      Not sure how you are calculating that. If I could just hire women at a lower rate than I do men I might actually achieve my budget!

      Can you provide a link to your sources? Data not just a National policy piece. Site some actual instances where a woman was earning less?

          But which exact data are you using? This story shows different figureshttp://www.radionz.co.nz/programmes/brighter-future/story/201851311/brighter-future-pay-gap-low-on-agenda …

          I think you're using the wrong stats, this says specifically that median hourly earnings from the NZIS is besthttp://www.stats.govt.nz/browse_for_stats/income-and-work/Income/gender-pay-gap.aspx …

          Hi Kirsty. NZIS ended in 2015. Median hourly earning data is now collected by HLFS. Median gap up from $1.79/hr in 2008 to $2.72/hr in 2016.

          So, you're right - median hourly earnings would have been better to use, it shows gap widening more. But both show it's worse nominally & %.

          The classic NZ trick of stopping a long-running survey at a random point! Thanks

          All this does is show average wages between men and women, show me an instance where a man and a woman are doing the same job, same hours
