☆ Why the gender pay gap has barely budged in decades, according to new Yale research
▼ + stars: | 2024-07-30 | by ( Jennifer Liu | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

New research from Yale indicates that while the gender pay gap has been closing for decades, progress has nearly stalled since the mid-1990s — and women aren't benefiting from the incremental improvements. That's according to a working paper led by Jaime Arellano-Bover, a lecturer of economics at the Yale School of Management. However, by the late '90s and early 2000s, the pay gap among young workers stopped narrowing. Meanwhile, the research suggests that the retirement of older workers with wider gaps is the sole contributor to decreasing the gender pay gap overall. The study's findings challenge the assumptions that the narrowing gender pay gap is the result of better career opportunities for women, Arellano-Bover says.

The rest is from the equity they've built in four properties they've purchased over the last three years: one primary residence and three rental properties. These properties also provide the couple with rental income that they put toward their savings. When someone buys a second home or investment property, mortgage lenders often require a downpayment of at least 10%. In addition to buying investment properties, Simpson said she and Ian have done whatever they can to grow their savings.

Last month, more than 5.7 million 16- to 19-year-olds participated in the labor market, Bureau of Labor Statistics data shows, marking the highest teen employment rate in June since 2007. Economists say more teens have been drawn to the workforce because of a hot labor market with more attractive wages. And as long as the economy stays strong, experts aren't expecting a dip in teen employment on the horizon. Economists say the overall direction teen employment takes depends heavily on where the economy is headed. A perfect storm of a tight labor market, rising wages, high education costs and curbed immigration could result in continued higher youth employment, Nestler said.

The pandemic signified a “historic backslide,” according to Dr. Katherine O’Brien, director of the Department of Immunization, Vaccines and Biological at WHO. WHO and UNICEF’s 2023 immunization coverage report, released Sunday, is the world’s largest dataset on immunization trends for vaccinations against 14 diseases. It analyzed estimates from 185 countries and used a third dose of the diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis (DTP3) vaccine — which is recommended for 1-year-olds — as the global marker for immunization coverage. The 2023 report also found HPV vaccine coverage in girls increased 7%, returning to near pre-pandemic levels. Analyzing immunization coverage in other areas of conflict is “a mixed picture,” O’Brien said.

Usually, after a financial crisis, people spend less money and fewer new businesses launch. Welcome to the age of the side hustle, where Americans are increasingly devoted to finding extra money to spend. Here's why so many people have side hustles right now, and why economists say they're probably here to stay. For roughly half of Americans with side hustles, the extra money isn't for fun: It's a necessity, driven by financial uncertainty. $250 per month is "by no means enough to live on, [but] it's a nice amount of money," Rossman says.
