According to a 2014 report published by Statistics Canada, gender equality has not yet been reached in Canadian workplaces.  It was noted that for every dollar a man makes, his female counterpart makes around 87 cents.  In other words, if a man makes around 70 thousand dollars a year, a woman would only be paid around 52 thousand dollars for the same work. It is unfair that even if the women is doing a better job than the man, the man still gets paid more.

According to marketing experts, there has been a drastic increase in equality rights between genders involving the workplace. For instance, back in the 1900's, women only received 72.7% of what men earned for the same occupation and position. Obviously this was very sexist considering that both men and women were doing the same amount of work. Fortunately, recently women have been receiving the same amount of wage which is very just and proves the gender equality in today's workplaces.

In the 1950s, women were more involved in the labour market as gender roles started evolving. Electrical appliances (dishwasher, washer & dryer, etc.) reduced time needed to perform chores and opportunities in the workplace increased. From 1953 to 1990, the rate for which women participated in the work force grew, rising from about 24% in 1953 to 76% in 1990.

Despite equality being a major issue for a long time (in particular; the workplace) the struggle for woman having equal rights seems to be far from over. According to Sarah Fielding from Bustle.com "Women Earn 79 Cents To A Man's Dollar" which is shocking to think about on a broad scale, considering the extreme gap in pay.

Gender equality has been a major issue throughout the workplace. To this day men and women are still not making the same wages. Even during economic downturns, the likelihood of being employed increases the higher the level of educational attainment. In 2009, 74.7% of women with a university degree, 59.1% of those with some postsecondary training and 56.2% of high school graduates were employed. In contrast, 35.0% of women who had attended, but had not completed, high school and just 13.7% of those who had not gone beyond grade 8 were employed that year.

Although gender equality has been a major issue for a long time it is still not fully resolved. There is still a discrepancy between the wages that men and women make. According to an Australian government website, there is a pay gap of about 15.3% more for men. On average women men make $251.20 more per week than women. Much of this pay gap is influenced by discrimination, the industries that men and women are more prominent in, and lack of workplace flexibility to accomadate for responsibilities. Many countries, including Australia, are working towards fixing this issue and maing the gender wage gap no longer an issue. https://www.wgea.gov.au/sites/default/files/gender-pay-gap-statistics.pdf

Like most other countries, Australia is working towards achieving gender equality in every workplace. However at the moment women earn less than men, they are less likely to advance in their careers as men are, and  they gain less retirement savings. As for men's inequality situations, they have less access to family-friendly policies such as parental leave or flexible working arrangements than women.

The more education that a woman has, the greater disparity in her wages, this was discovered when a study was conducted showing that women make only 72.7% of what a man makes in that same professional position. Not to make women shy away from having a professional occupation, but women who were even higher up in corporations, earned even less then a male in that position would at 72.3%.

According to Statistics Canada, women make an average of $0.74 for every $1 a man makes. The Globe and Mail says that there has been minimal progress in bridging this gap in the past few decades and goes on to highlight how Canada’s gender pay inequality is below average according to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, and also places 35th on World Economic Forum’s global gender gap ranking.

Unfortunately there are no workplaces where men and woman are both paid the same but if a woman works in a union, there is less of a wage gap. Women who are able to work in a unionized profession earn 82% of what men make. This means there is less of a wage gap because women in professions without a union only make 72% of what men do. Hopefully, we can close this wage gap for every job.
