CareerJunction pulls back the curtain on the gender pay gap in South Africa.
Jobs portal Career Junction shows that gender gaps prevail across many job roles, including leadership roles.
The report used data gathered from Saongroup South Africa, a platform where top recruiters in South Africa post job listings for millions of registered job seekers. CareerJunction found that across all sectors, men account for over half of all middle department and senior managerial roles, yet women make up less than one-third.
“In terms of executive management/director roles, the gap is even wider, with men accounting for 61% of these jobs and women only accounting for only 30%,” CareerJunction said.
