> The 2019 real median earnings of men ($57,456) and women ($47,299) who worked full-time, year-round increased by 2.1 percent and 3.0 percent, respectively (Figure 4 and Table A-6).
- vitus 6y agoHm, I wonder how you reconcile this with the other summary finding that > the real median earnings of full-time, year-round workers increased 0.8 percent between 2018 and 2019 Seems like this is the wealth gap, coupled with an increase of the proportion of females working full-time in the workforce. > The number of females who were full-time, year-round workers increased by about 1.2 million between 2018 and 2019, while the change for their male counterparts was not statistically significant.
