Pay gap worst for Japan's mothers

Working mothers in Japan suffer from the largest pay gap with men among major developed countries, the OECD says in a new report. The median salary of working Japanese women with children is 61 percent lower than that of men, the largest gap among the 30 countries with available data, the OECD said Dec. 17, adding that the gap averaged 22 percent. The 34-member OECD compiled data on the salaries of full-time workers between the ages of 25 and 44, within the child-rearing age for women, mainly in 2008. (Kyodo News, AP)
