Latest / Radio Baloney - The Richie Baloney Show! / Gender Pay Gap Destroyed In Australia
Transcript
- 0:03So I think it's become pretty obvious at this point that wokeness, anti racism,
- 0:09dei feminism, these are part of an ideology that doesn't seek to actually
- 0:14solve anything. They just exist to well keep existing to perpetuate themselves. It's
- 0:21just become an industry at this point filled with people who need to keep finding
- 0:24oppression somewhere and then lecture you about it. And they're guaranteed to find something
- 0:29because don't you know, they can read your mind and decipher all of your
- 0:33microaggressions, you know, those things that nobody would even notice if there wasn't
- 0:37a commissar over everybody's shoulder to denounce them. But anyway, here's a video
- 0:42of some cult members trying to justify their claims that there is a gender pay
- 0:47gap in Australia, and you might notice they have nothing to support their claims
- 0:52other than their own self righteousness. So do you take into account the fact
- 1:00that on average, a mile full time employee works longer hours and a female
- 1:03full time employee. Not directly, no, you don't, but we annualize
- 1:12the part time hours and those that have worked full time but for part of
- 1:17the year. So that way, because at the moment. What I can
- 1:23to you is women work part time at three times the rate of men.
- 1:26So by annualizing it, we are looking at a more realistic based on an
- 1:32annual salary. Yeah, what about if you did so that means she didn't
- 1:37like the data, so she's not using it. Yeah, what about if
- 1:41you did on an hourly rate, what would be the gender hourly pay gap?
- 1:49Well, we don't have that data set. We don't have that data
- 1:52because we ask for annualized salaries because from our employees when they report their data
- 1:57in and we know way she does that, right, because it's misleading,
- 2:02right, it's misleading when she leaves out important context like how many hours is
- 2:07everybody actually working? Okay, so if a woman was working fewer hours but
- 2:15earning the same rate per hour as a man doing the same job, would
- 2:22that show up as a gender pay gap? No? But well then in
- 2:30that case you are looking at early rights. Jenny British Research and Analytics executive
- 2:43managers. So we do not collect a real hours. Do you see how
- 2:47quickly it all falls apart under just the slightest bit of real interrogation And that's
- 2:53because it has been and I think this is changing. It has been simply
- 2:58politically too politically incorrect. Do we even ask these questions, Jenny Bridge,
- 3:04Research and Analytics executive managers, So we do not. We do not collect
- 3:08the real hours that an employee might have worked. So what we do collect
- 3:12is the hours that are specified in a contract and that is provided by organizations
- 3:16to us. If that makes sense, Yeah, but I mean if you
- 3:23do you annualize it on the assumption that men and women are working the same
- 3:28number of hours? Or is it actual earnings? Well, that was awkward.
- 3:36It's actual earnings, and we are unable to We don't have the data
- 3:40to distinguish or to to then unadjust or adjust for hours because we are we
- 3:47are not We cannot collect the real hours that employees are worked. Well,
- 3:52maybe she'd have that data if she well worked a little more. Is not
- 3:55possible to tell whether any or some of the gender pay graph is just simply
- 4:01attributable to a different number of ours work, is it right? It depends
- 4:09on whether we're looking at ours that are in contract or whether whether we're looking
- 4:15at ours employees worked, as you know over time, Well, why is
- 4:19it you don't look at ours worked? We know why it is. We
- 4:27know why they don't look at that because they know it won't benefit them.
- 4:31They won't make it any easier to sell the lie. Don't collect it,
- 4:35but the ABS does, it's available, The ABS does. Does a survey
- 4:43Yes, every two years. Yes, and that's but again, as I
- 4:46say, we collect census data, that is survey data. And the other
- 4:50thing I would say at this stage, Senator, is just because somebody might
- 4:56be sitting at their desk for twelve hours a day, you're getting twelve hours
- 5:00of productivity out of them, and doesn't mean that they're working, in essence,
- 5:04any harder that someone might as someone that might sit at their desk for
- 5:10eight hours. So somebody who works more hours might not actually be working harder
- 5:15than somebody who works less hours. So therefore gender pay gap. And I'm
- 5:23going to guess she doesn't have any data on that either. And it really
- 5:26is amazing how this myth just keeps on. It's like a zombie myth.
- 5:30It's been known for years that when you adjust for people's preferences going into the
- 5:34workforce, and when you adjust for hours worked, the pay gap disappears doesn't
- 5:42exist anymore. In fact, in Australia, it's actually illegal to pay men
- 5:46and women differently for work of equal value. Anyway, that's all I'm want
- 5:51to say about that. Please subscribe, like and share, share It really
- 5:55helps me out. I thank you for that. I will see you next time.
