This report from PwC reveals that the average gender pay gap across the OECD widened from 13.2% in 2021 to 13.5% in 2022 and suggests that understanding the multitude of factors and complexities that drive gender disparities is a crucial step in helping to address them and make progress towards a more equal workplace. The research highlights how closing the gender pay gap can unlock significant economic gains by increasing women’s earnings by up to an estimated £55bn per year and encourage more women to join (or rejoin) the workforce – a 5% increase in the total number of women in employment could boost UK GDP by up to £125bn every year.
