FRANKFURT, Mar 18 (AFP): There was no change in the gender pay gap in Germany last year for the third year running, with women earning 22 per cent less than men, official data showed Tuesday.
Women earned an average hourly gross wage of 15.56 euros ($21.65) in 2013, while men earned 19.84 euros per hour, the federal statistics office Destatis said in a statement.
The difference of 22 per cent has remained unchanged since 2010.
