Summary

This research report looks into the gender pay gap in Britain, defined as the difference in average hourly pay between men and women. It explores: the size of the gender wage gap; the features of the gap and how it varies by characteristics; the key causes of the gap. Recommendations for what needs to change to tackle the gender pay gap can be found in our report: Fair opportunities for all: A strategy for reducing pay gaps in Britain.
