A new report has found that South Korea's gender pay gap widens as women get older, with women earning less than men and facing fewer employment opportunities over the course of their careers.
The findings point to a pattern in which the wage disparity is smaller among younger workers but grows progressively wider in later career stages, according to the report.
The report also notes that South Korean women face reduced employment opportunities as they age, compounding the earnings gap identified in the research.
The findings add to ongoing discussion in South Korea about workplace equality and the structural factors affecting women's long-term career prospects.
