This paper explains the disparity in
remuneration among the sexes and indicates that women, who are engaged full-time work,
receive roughly 80% of men's hourly
remuneration. The author stresses that it has been made legally mandatory in the U.S. to apply uniform remuneration for uniform employment to speed up the progression of bringing in parity. The paper points out that a significant factor in the pay
disparity is the fact that women are more often engaged in part-time work, which pays less proportionally than the full-time equivalent.
