Gender Pay Inequality In Uk Medicine

2017年，英国成为首批要求雇主报告性别薪酬差距(以下简称GPG)的国家之一(Else，2018)。英国国家统计局(2019年)报告称，目前英国全职员工的GPG为8.9%。英国员工的GPG从2018年的17.8%下降到2019年的17.3%。然而，在公共部门，GPG从2018年的16%上升到2019年的16.7%(英国《金融时报》，2019年)。在OME 2017-2020年的业务计划中，目标之一是了解公共部门的GPG，这是Jones和Kaya最近的OME报告(2019年)提供的见解。在报告中发现，DDRB中的GPG为20%，高于OME考虑的其他八个PRB中的任何一个。这些证据表明，在处理性别歧视的过程中，进一步调查PRB中的GPG是相关和必要的。

In 2017, the U.K. became one of the first countries to require employers to report the gender pay gap (GPG hereinafter) (Else, 2018). The ONS (2019) reports the GPG among full-time employees in the U.K. currently stands at 8.9%. The GPG among total U.K. employees has declined from 17.8% in 2018 to 17.3% in 2019. However, in the public sector the GPG has increased from 16% in 2018 to 16.7% in 2019 (Financial Times, 2019). In the OME's business plan for 2017-2020, one of the aims is to understand the GPG in the public sector, an insight provided by the recent OME's report by Jones and Kaya (2019). In the report it was found that the GPG in the DDRB is of 20%, higher than any of the other eight PRB's considered by the OME. Such evidence suggests that further investigation of the GPG in the PRBs is relevant and necessary in the process of tackling gender discrimination.
