Albanese Government Delivers Legislation To Help Close The Gender Pay Gap | Ministers Media Centre (pmc.gov.au)
Problem being addressed
The Review of the Workplace Gender Equality Act 2012 (released March 2022) concluded that the gender pay gap in Australia was not closing at a fast enough rate. Work to progress women’s economic equality in Australia has been fragmented, leading to slow progress on closing the gender pay gap, which according to the Workplace Gender Equality Agency's latest data, has stalled at 22.8 per cent in 2021 and 2022. Estimates indicate, at the current rate of progress, it would take approximately 26 years to close the full-time gender pay gap.
