The line graph illustrates the income gap between genders in five countries at ten-year intervals between 1978 and 2008.
Overall, there was a reduction in the percentage difference between the incomes of men and women for most of the period. However, after 1998, the percentage gap in gender incomes actually widened in Australia.
In 1978, there was a difference of almost 50% between the incomes of men and women in Japan, compared with about 34% in the USA. Both countries then saw a steady reduction in these figures, so that by 2008 the percentage gaps were 40% and 28% respectively.
There was also a fall in the income gap between genders in the UK and France. In those countries, the perecentage difference in income between men and women was lower than in Japan or the USA. From figures of about 30% and 20% respectively in the UK and France, the percentage decline was gradual, to 26% in the UK and 18% in France by 2008. In contrast, in 1978 the lowest income gap was in Australia. While this remained at about 8% until 1998, it then rose to 24% at the end of the period, overtaking the figure for France.
