To assess the gender wage gap in female-dominated professions, the Washington, D.C.-based nonprofit analyzed 2023 data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Three notes:
1. Full-time male nurses earned a median weekly wage of $1,657 last year, while female nurses earned $1,409 — or 85% of men’s wages. Women comprise 85.7% of the full-time nursing workforce.
2. The weekly median gender earnings ratio improved across all jobs from 17% in 2022 to 16.4% in 2023, though this gap widened for most races and ethnicities.
3. Nationwide, full-time female workers earned 83.6 cents for every dollar paid to a full-time working man. This gap expanded to 78.1 cents on the dollar when part-time work was included.
