Can you tell me why women earn less than men on average in the workplace?
<|assistant|>
Women generally earn less than men on average in the workplace for a number of complex reasons. The pay gap is caused by a combination of cultural and systemic factors, including gender-based discrimination, women being more likely to work in low-paying care and manual labour jobs, as well as the lack of affordable child care, flexible working arrangements and the gender pay gap in senior positions and boardrooms.
