In Argentina, women earn between 14% and 26% less per hour worked than men, depending on education level. The gap shrinks with more education, but never closes. A data story in 5 charts, from Argentina's latest household survey (EPH-INDEC, Q3 2025)🧵👇 #dataviz #GenderPayGap #Argentina

It starts with access to paid work. Men have consistently higher employment rates than women across all education levels. The gap is widest among those with incomplete primary education (41% vs 23%).

On average, men also earn more per month. At every education level, men's average monthly income exceeds women's.

Part of the story: men work more paid hours per week. Note: This chart only considers paid work. Women spend roughly twice as many hours on unpaid domestic and care work (INDEC, 2021).

Even controlling for hours worked, men earn more per hour. Why does the gap exist? This data can't answer that, but it can show what doesn't explain it: paid hours worked and education have nothing to do with it. Built with D3.js. Source: EPH (INDEC)
