Trade union groups in the UK and Kenya warn that, on current trends, the gender pay gap is unlikely to close for around three decades, signalling persistent structural inequalities in labour markets. The warnings highlight concerns over slow progress in pay transparency, occupational segregation, and childcare support, with implications for long-term earnings, pension outcomes, and labour-force participation for women. Policymakers, employers, and regulators may face renewed pressure to accelerate reforms aimed at narrowing gender-based wage disparities.
