Part-Time Work and the "Pay Gap"
http://thekojonnamdishow.org/shows/2010-09-14/part-time-work-and-pay-gap
We often hear that women make 77 cents for every dollar men make in the United States. But some researchers say that figure may be far higher, if for example you take into account all employment, including part-time work. We explore what the "pay gap" really means, and how salaries compare here and abroad.
