Wage segregation refers to the disparity in earnings between different groups of people, often based on their gender, race, or other characteristics. It refers to the unequal distribution of wages, where certain groups consistently earn less than others for similar work or comparable qualifications. This can lead to economic inequality and hinder the progress towards equal opportunities and fairness in the workplace. Wage segregation is often the result of discriminatory practices, biases, and systemic inequalities within society. | Wage segregation refers to the disparity in earnings between different groups of people, often based on their gender, race, or other characteristics.
