The CSO figures reveal a stark gender pay gap, with men earning a median of €770 per week compared to €623 for women, underlining systemic inequalities in the workforce.
The rise in median weekly earnings, reflecting a 4.2% increase across all employees, emphasizes the economic recovery yet also highlights persistent disparities in earnings between genders.
With the information and communications sector recording the highest median annual earnings at €76,002, it signals both opportunity and disparity within various sectors of the economy.
The exclusion of part-time workers and those with minimal employment from annual earnings calculations by the CSO raises questions about the comprehensiveness of assessing gender pay differences.
