1. The wages of each worker are determined by factors such as personal ability, education, career, etc. The differences exist between men and women. It is said that women's education is traditionally lower than men's, and that in world history, women's education and careers will be lower than men's.
2. The education level of women and men is almost the same these days. So another reason was the career break due to the birth and childrearing of women. Even if women and men enter the company at the same time, men can continue their careers, but women often lose their careers when they are given birth or child. Recently, many systems such as paternity leave were introduced to solve this problem, but the data was not well reflected because of the early introduction. Even if you return to work, the wage difference between men who have been in the workforce is natural.
3. Another reason that has been consistently raised academically is that there is a gender wage gap because women work relatively in jobs where there is no opportunity for promotion or training.
As mentioned in number two, women often lose their careers because they quit their jobs because of childcare or childbirth. If you jump into the labor market again, you will mainly be engaged in low-paying or irregular-paying jobs that have limited chances of promotion.
