About this dataset

Context

The dataset presents median income data over a decade or more for males and females categorized by Total, Full-Time Year-Round (FT), and Part-Time (PT) employment in Cuba. It showcases annual income, providing insights into gender-specific income distributions and the disparities between full-time and part-time work. The dataset can be utilized to gain insights into gender-based pay disparity trends and explore the variations in income for male and female individuals.

Key observations: Insights from 2023

Based on our analysis ACS 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates, we present the following observations: - All workers, aged 15 years and older: In Cuba, the median income for all workers aged 15 years and older, regardless of work hours, was $57,188 for males and $27,639 for females.

These income figures highlight a substantial gender-based income gap in Cuba. Women, regardless of work hours, earn 48 cents for each dollar earned by men. This significant gender pay gap, approximately 52%, underscores concerning gender-based income inequality in the town of Cuba.

- Full-time workers, aged 15 years and older: In Cuba, among full-time, year-round workers aged 15 years and older, males earned a median income of $90,089, while females earned $57,500, leading to a 36% gender pay gap among full-time workers. This illustrates that women earn 64 cents for each dollar earned by men in full-time roles. This level of income gap emphasizes the urgency to address and rectify this ongoing disparity, where women, despite working full-time, face a more significant wage discrepancy compared to men in the same employment roles.

Remarkably, across all roles, including non-full-time employment, women displayed a similar gender pay gap percentage. This indicates a consistent gender pay gap scenario across various employment types in Cuba, showcasing a consistent income pattern irrespective of employment status.

GNI per capita (formerly GNP per capita) is the gross national income, converted to U.S. dollars using the World Bank Atlas method, divided by the midyear population. GNI is the sum of value added by all resident producers plus any product taxes (less subsidies) not included in the valuation of output plus net receipts of primary income (compensation of employees and property income) from abroad. GNI, calculated in national currency, is usually converted to U.S. dollars at official exchange rates for comparisons across economies, although an alternative rate is used when the official exchange rate is judged to diverge by an exceptionally large margin from the rate actually applied in international transactions. To smooth fluctuations in prices and exchange rates, a special Atlas method of conversion is used by the World Bank. This applies a conversion factor that averages the exchange rate for a given year and the two preceding years, adjusted for differences in rates of inflation between the country, and through 2000, the G-5 countries (France, Germany, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States).

About this dataset

Context

The dataset presents median income data over a decade or more for males and females categorized by Total, Full-Time Year-Round (FT), and Part-Time (PT) employment in Cuba. It showcases annual income, providing insights into gender-specific income distributions and the disparities between full-time and part-time work. The dataset can be utilized to gain insights into gender-based pay disparity trends and explore the variations in income for male and female individuals.

Key observations: Insights from 2023

Based on our analysis ACS 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates, we present the following observations: - All workers, aged 15 years and older: In Cuba, the median income for all workers aged 15 years and older, regardless of work hours, was $33,143 for males and $28,875 for females.

Based on these incomes, we observe a gender gap percentage of approximately 13%, indicating a significant disparity between the median incomes of males and females in Cuba. Women, regardless of work hours, still earn 87 cents to each dollar earned by men, highlighting an ongoing gender-based wage gap.

- Full-time workers, aged 15 years and older: In Cuba, among full-time, year-round workers aged 15 years and older, males earned a median income of $49,167, while females earned $50,921

Surprisingly, within the subset of full-time workers, women earn a higher income than men, earning 1.04 dollars for every dollar earned by men. This suggests that within full-time roles, womens median incomes significantly surpass mens, contrary to broader workforce trends.
