I've been looking at equity data all day on the members in my union to determine if there's a pay gap
Spoiler: women get paid less for the same work 😱

@Ryannnnnn It's... complicated. All of my members are salaried so there's no issue of hours and if you compare people in the same positions same ranks you still see a pay gap that favours men over women.
If you include years of service the population becomes too small.
Like If you look at "top ranked women vs men who have been here over 20 years" this is where pay gaps are the strongest but there's only like eight people.
The fact men put in more hours and tend to be in higher jobs because of social expectations on child rearing is really relevant and probably does things like slow promotion rates. Idon't have rate of promotion in my data.
