Survey: Chinese female staff enjoy equal pay, promotion
Print Edition
CHINESE women employees generally enjoy equal pay and promotion prospects as males, compared with the global average, due to China’s relatively quick economic growth and shortage of skilled talent, recruitment agency Hays said in a survey yesterday.
The survey found 80 percent of the respondents in China said their companies paid capable women and men equally. The China results led those in Russia, Australia, Spain and France.
The China reading is also above the global average of 64 percent.
Promotion opportunities were equal regardless of gender, 64 percent of the Chinese respondents said as China took third spot among the five markets. The figure is higher than the global average of 61 percent.
Hays surveyed about 6,000 respondents globally, and the China report covered 521 respondents of which 55 percent are females.
Simon Lance, managing director of Hays China, attributed the better conditions in China to its relatively fast growth which created jobs, and to the shortage of skilled talent which opened more positions for women.
But women were more skeptical than their male co-workers over gender equality as 28 percent of them, compared with 13 percent of the men, thought that salaries were not equal.
Also, 47 percent of the women, compared with 24 percent of the men, said promotion opportunities were not equal.
A separate survey of 16,361 respondents nationwide by 51job.com found nearly a quarter of men and 9.5 percent of women saying their pre-tax salary exceeded 10,000 yuan (US$1,613) per month.
