The 8th of March marks the annual International Women\u2019s Day. Wages are an important factor in driving gender parity. In a video interview Professor Alan Manning talks about the gender pay gap between men and women in the United Kingdom and in Germany.<\/p>\n

In the United Kingdom about half of the women work part-time. Part-time work is paid significantly less than full-time work. That difference in wage between full- and part-time working women is an important aspect when analysing the causes of the general wage gap between men and women in the United Kingdom. However, the main reason is that women working part-time\u00a0 have different jobs, says Professor Manning. They tend to work in lower paid jobs than women working full-time.<\/p>\n

Considering the gender pay gap in Germany, Professor Manning talks about possible solutions to help close this gap. He states that the general employment rate of women needs to be increased not in the minijob sector but in full-time jobs. In that regard Manning points out: \u201cOne of the challenges in Germany is to get more and better paid and fuller-time jobs for women.\u201d<\/p>\n
