Women hold more than 70% of the jobs, yet men still earn more for the same role. Male teachers earn a median of $1,096 a week, whereas women earn $956 -- about 87 cents to the man's dollar."]]> 2017-04-06 17:01:45 UTC https://padlet.com/eccole1/janenx2qv84j/wish/165207035 "At the rate of change between 1960 and 2015, women are expected to reach pay equity with men in 2059. But even that slow progress has stalled in recent years. If change continues at the slower rate seen since 2001, women will not reach pay equity with men until 2152." amber_aranas https://padlet.com/eccole1/janenx2qv84j/wish/165207209 2017-04-06 17:02:17 UTC https://padlet.com/eccole1/janenx2qv84j/wish/165207209 Sources eccole1 https://padlet.com/eccole1/janenx2qv84j/wish/165207288 http://money.cnn.com/2015/04/13/news/economy/equal-pay-day-2015/

The state has large numbers of population-growth driven jobs like construction or maintenance that are male-dominated but not well paid, said Dennis Hoffman, professor at the W. P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University. ``Women dominate financial services, education, medical services, etc., which likely are jobs that pay a bit more. So it is likely industrial mix coupled with occupational choice,'' Hoffman said.
