The value of sick pay: older workers & women often get less
09 September 2021
Women and older workers are less likely to have access to employer-provided sick pay, according to Dr Christopher Rauh, from the Covid Inequality Project. The research has also found that workers in jobs that cannot be done from home are particularly unlikely to have sick pay.
“The difference in marriage rates between black and white Americans is striking,” says Dr Christopher Rauh. “The bleak labour market prospects of black men and the considerable risk of being incarcerated go a long way in explaining why so many black women are unmarried.”
