Reasons behind the pay gap between women and men
Women in Switzerland earn considerably less than men – and the difference can only be partially explained by objective factors. Lower wages result in less economic independence for women and losses in retirement provision.On average, women earn 1,500 francs or 18 per cent per month less than men (based on the mean). The pay gap increases over the course of their lifetime: it is low at the start of a career, then increases continuously before reaching its maximum before retirement.
