I thought Iceland was one of those wonderful democratic socialist countries that Bernie bags about? (S)

[hinckley buzzard]

Iceland already has an equal pay law. This is just theatrics for some domestic consumption.

[Damifino]

Has anyone noticed?

[Seruzawa]

Good news for spas, salons and wine stores.

Has the entire world gone irresponsibly insane?
Getting closer and closer to that great, glorious, terrible Day of the LORD.

Iceland, another place that’s isolated from mass migration by virtue of them being an island. Maybe it’s time we send a few cruise ships filled with thousands of Venezuelan ‘migrants’ there? See how Katrín Jakobsdóttir (aka Little Miss Socialist) handles that.

This Commie should start a small business and rectify this great “inequity”.

It’s a “protest movement” supported by the entire political elite of the country, including the Prime Minister.

[moovova]

So her vagina isn’t going to work that day. So what?

[BitWielder1]

If women do the same job as men for less, then why aren't the majority of the workforce women already?
What possible reason could there be to hire men at all?

[butlerweave]

She’s part of the Left-Green Movement ,LOL

[systemjim]

Only a liberal could claim a “gender pay gap” exists while at the same time saying there is no such thing as gender.

Bolotnyy & Emanuel, 2019, "Why Do Women Earn Less Than Men? Evidence from Bus and Train Operators", (link)

Abstract

Female workers earn $0.89 for each male-worker dollar even in a unionized work place where tasks, wages, and promotion schedules are identical for men and women by design. We use administrative time card data on bus and train operators to show that the earnings gap can be explained by female operators taking, on average, 1.5 fewer hours of overtime and 1.3 more hours of unpaid time-off per week than male operators.Female operators, especiallythosewhohavedependents,pursuescheduleconventionality,predictability,and controllabilitymorethanmaleoperators.Analyzingtwopolicychanges,we demonstrate that while reducing schedule controllability can reduce the earnings gap, it can also make workers—particularly female workers—worse off.

In this study, where jobs, pay and promotions are gender neutral, on average women have lower take home pay because women are more likely to take more time of and work less overtime. This is only one study. It is of interest since it shows the issues are more complex than activist slogans and news headlines make it appear.

Women make up 20% of engineering graduates, but it’s been estimated that nearly 40% of women who earn engineering degrees either quit or never enter the profession.

Harvard Business Review

Seems to me that they demand to be paid for what men do; but are not willing to do what men do, to earn that pay. I am seeing that in a lot of young applicants, they want the Senior Engineer salary, but have neither the skills, nor the experience to justify their demand.

Not to worry ladies. With all the muslims you’re importing you won’t have to work. You won’t even be allowed to leave the house.
