PAY GENDER GAP
I have investigated 40 people in my area about the pay gender and the results are:
For men
Age Payment
18-30 100 €
31-40 150 €
41-50 200€
Average 150€
For women
Age Payment
18-30 75 €
31-40 100 €
41-50 125 €
Average 100 €
As the results said, the women are paid less than men (about 50% more than women).
And there is an interesting part of my study that is about men and women over 60 years. Even though they have worked in the same way under the communist region, and everyone said that they all worked in the same way and earned the same ammount of money, let see their pensions.
Men
Age Payment
60-70 130 €
71-80 140 €
Average 135 €
Women
Age Payment
60-70 85 €
71-80 95 €
Average 90 €
So the results are the same. It means that there are made differences in the payments of people according to their gender and the gender that is less paid is female.
Classroom discussion tips for tomorrow
Please look for information regarding gender equality, law and religion in Albania. Every student is encouraged to bring and present information in class.
