The gender pay gap at more than 100 commonwealth public sector employers, including the ABC, has been laid bare for the first time, with the national broadcaster paying men nearly 10% more than women when median total remuneration is compared across the organisation.
Overall, pay gaps at commonwealth public sector employers were significantly better than those in the private sector, as revealed in March. The average total remuneration pay gap of 21.1% was more than triple the average public sector gap of 6.4%. While sectors were compared on average, employers were assessed on median gaps.
