Gender Pay Gap Analysis and Parity Initiatives in City of Harare
The City of Harare has sex-disaggregated data on employment showing disparities in earnings between men and women. The average monthly earnings for full-time and casual positions reveal a gender wage gap of 0.96%. Reasons for this gap include job segregation and manual labor preferences, affecting women's participation in certain roles. The council is taking steps to address this gap by encouraging women to apply for executive positions and previously male-dominated roles, aiming for pay parity.

What are the reasons for the gender- wage gap? Add Photo? Most of the City s operations are largely manual, they are not yet automated hence the City requires physical manpower in most of these areas resulting in females shunning employment in such areas and males dominating those fields. E.g garave digging, trench digging for pipe laying or repairs, tree cutters and refuse operators.
Is there a budget to bring about parity Executive/Senior positions that are still vacant which have been budgeted. Previously male dominated positions that are also vacant but already budgeted for. City of Harare is an equal opportunity employer therefore women are encouraged to apply to join the organization as well as take up previously male dominated positions when they arise.
