According to a recent article in
Economist.com Women do earn about the same as men when jobs are equal. In the article the Economist reports that according to data from 25 countries, gathered by Korn Ferry, "women earn 98% of the wages of men who are in the same roles at the same employers".
This would seem to indicate that when Gender Pay Gap studies are viewed from a high level, not taking into account Comparable Worth of jobs, that the differences must be distorted by Occupational Career Level Differences rather than discrimination when jobs are the same.
