Questions:
could you provide the full url?
do you know where I could find a copy of the study? (or is it one of those
"pay us $xxxx dollars" for a copy ones?)
I'm quite curious as to how this determination was reached..
In terms of male/female pay per position.. it seems to me the majority of
women are getting payed less for the same position/work still..
However then again a> I'm not a scientist, b> I only know select groups of
people, c> only certian people in said groups share such information..
Thanks in advance for the information if you find it,
Curious
