The economics of the gender pay gap
She’s Price(d)less is a long-running series of reports in Australia that analyses the contributing drivers of the gender pay gap on an ongoing basis, to explain why the gender pay gap exists, and where it needs to be addressed the most.
It provides policymakers and business leaders with evidence-based insight to better understand and take more informed action to reduce the gender pay gap in Australia.
The 5th edition of KPMG Australia’s She’s Price(d)less report was prepared with Diversity Council Australia (DCA) and the Workplace Gender Equality Agency (WGEA).
