Icelandic pay gap

I thought the Icelandic people were based? Couldn’t they see through the gender pay gap myth? Apparently not.

but not the other way around?

Based Iceland

how does that work exactly

literally no two people do exactly the same job so it's always possible to pay them differently

if it's just "women have to earn the same as men on the same position in the same company" then they just won't hire women

>Sorry, Miss, we decided to hire someone else. >Thank you for applying.
Repeat ad infinitum

birthrate decline in 3.2....

so, massive pay reduction instead of increase?
Nice basket of crabs you got there.

>I thought the Icelandic people were based? Couldn’t they see through the gender pay gap myth? Apparently not.
It's fucking Iceland. All they do is make aluminium and fish cod. The only other industry is services. Citing Iceland (with a population of about 300,000) as an example of a country where the wage gap does not exist is stupid. Their economy is not diverse enough to require differences in wages. Fucking fishing, answering the telephone, and making aluminium. Who the fuck cares about this new law?

>Pay the fine you misogynistic pigs.

Do modern women even know how controlling they are?

>I thought the Icelandic people were based?

Only in a sense. Icelandic obliteration of the northern ports, with their sanctioned theft of British fishing waters, like Hull, Grimsby and Scunthorpe is indirectly responsible for Brexit happening.

question: Is it legal to pay woman more than men? if yes, than this is the most fucked up racist/mysoginistic 1984 shit of the last 10 years

>Icelandic
>based
They're literally the most libtard nation in the world.

>be male salesman
>make 15 sales
>woman makes 2 sales of cars
>get paid same
>male salesman then will only make 2 sales of cars and then post on Sup Forums for rest of time at work

I'm calling it now. Screencap this. Iceland civilization will collapse in 50 years.

Here it's illeagal to pay less to woman from same job.
They are still earning less in total bc they have less working experience.
Also if your just observing whos earning more regardless the job, women gonna lose again bc they are doing job with worse salary.

In the end they are still crying: Muh dollar is only 80 cents.

Holy fuckin shit.

So nothing changes.

Basically this.

>What is basic salary?

Why would I work harder than someone if I can't get paid more? You are incentivizing me to work at the lowest acceptable standard.

Why is this news? Was it legal to hire women and pay less for them before? I think this is illegal in any civilized country - also in not so civilized ones like Brazil.

are you stupid?

>based
Number 1 single mother capital of the world user... Even African countries are more monogamous and tradational then them. /Pol? needs to learn a white etho state of degenrates, simply won't reamin white for long, nor deserves to continue existing.

Im saying that this usually only affects the basic salary.
Working experience,bonuses, etc, are diffrend matter.

women earning less money than men is a problem for jews.

most women spend most of their money on stupid stuff, they consume non stop. that's why they're pushing this gender cap meme

Did you read the article? If a man or company pays more to the man than the women he or them has to pay a fine. I don’t see any laws saying if a man is payed less though the woman has to pay a fine.

>same job
but here is the problem, it can be defined differently. i see some cunts try to argue "same position = same pay", and realistically everyone does a different amount of work, so everyone can be paid differently.

so you can think of a "job" as a position, or as an amount of wealth produced.

I've been telling you idiots that Iceland is the most cucked nation of them all. They are just lucky to be so isolated.

Why are you against that women earn same basic salary as men?
Ofc you earn more if you work harder.

Feminism was basically a communist plot in order to bring women into the work force so they have more votes.
If only women knew there so called freedom is only a pawn in a losing game.

Does someone need a hug bro

>tfw it backfires

>despite working less than men and thus earning less, women will be as expensive as men for the enterprises
>it unironically destroys the only slight advantage women had over men on the market
>people stop hiring women over men
>women stay at home and get pregnant
>birthrate goes up

>Iceland makes it illegal to hire more men than women

>Hire transgender MtF

Okay so let’s say a man and a woman are both in the same positions in a job. But the man overall works harder and gets more done, is it fair that they get paid the same?

It's already the case in the United States. You can already sue a company for lost wages if you discover you've been paid less.

Well I hope that that's not gonna happend bc that's how you get communism.

This btw

I disagree

It's purely capitalistic. hiring women stopped men from having any leverage regarding striking threats, also the new influx of cheap workers prevented a rise for men's salary.

capitalism is the best economic system but for each things extremism causes problems.

the wage gap shit is a myth
you know it
i know it
everyone knows it
just another retarded thing for women to use so they can can get a "minority" status effect
even though they are over 50% of all humans

>hiring women at the rate you'd pay a man
So it looks like women will be having a difficult time securing positions in the workforce. Any company that doesn't divest itself of it's female workforce immediately is destined for ruin.
Question for the pink wojak crew: How can I short and entire country's economy?

No.
Im only talking about the basic salary.

It's already illegal to discriminate on gender in the rest if the civilised world, fucking Icelandic Neanderthals

but by law if they have the same experience, they're paid the same.

women earn less money because they work less hours, and are also less likely to shill themselves into getting a raise.

They're about 50 years behind on that my dude. USA #1

I understand what you mean, but the roots of womens liberation was basically to use them as cattle to put them into the workforce for left wing parties to get in. Economies are better as a whole when men are working and women are at home with child, as you know. With the issue of it being capitalism though I’m really not sure about that. Industries and businesses shrived when the native men of the land where working in them, so to bringing low waged, low skilled migrants or women for that matter wouldn’t make sense in capitalist market imo, knowing their more liking to apply for unions and what not, wanting help for the government.

>soon enough they will force companies to get 50 50 workforce like Sweden
>the men's half will have to pick up the women's slack and double their work
>will still get paid the same

And this is why nobody likes women, even other women

The end result of all these "pro-women" movements is that nobody will want anything to do with women.

We're already seeing high-level corporate suits and politicians refusing one-on-one meetings with women, its too risky to put your entire career at stake over a single female making a he said vs she said claim in an environment where what she said is automatically believed. This is starting at the top because they have the power and money to get away with it but its going to filter down through the rest of society over time. Women's equality is going to result in women being tip-toed around, oh we'll still have some token high-level positions staffed by women but the end result is going to be something like Saudi Arabia where women must have chaperones.

It cracks me up how women don't understand that the "patriarchy" they are in a rush to bring crumbling down was built by them, for them.

This
If it can go wrong, it will go wrong. Hire a woman. If she doesn't work, fire her. If she works as good and as long as a man, keep her. Either way everybody gets redpilled, so it's a win-win.

Iceland is full of atheists sodomites

It's like nature has a way of correcting itself.

Next the soyfags will die out

>illegal to pay man more then woman without regard to experience or amount of time worked.
pretty much any business cant operate this way. brain drain very quickly.
>pay women the same as men who have the same skills amount of hours worked and experience
so they are just like every one of the angelo colonies now, congrats

>Iceland, which has a strong economy based on tourism and fisheries, has been ranked the best in the world for gender equality by the World Economic Forum for nine years in a row.

not broken, lets fix it

Yeah, pretty much everyone has had laws like this for decades/half a century. The change here being that the burden has shifted to employers, in that they have to prove everyone is being treated fairly, not a employee having to prove they're being treated unfairly.

What about the tax pay gap?

No. Because no one is willing to say no to them.

You should read Mao's Great Famine by Dikotter to see what happens when this shit is applied to a whole country.

Basically the incentives for hard work are erased when you're payed the same no matter what, exactly as your example posits. It quickly becomes a race to the bottom, where basically it's increasingly efficient to work less and less since salary is assured. Eventually the whole economy collapses.

Nice that Iceland is tiny, so it'll be accelerated. I'm excited to see how this little experiment works out.

The accelerationist in me wants to meme-report as many businesses as possible when this law comes into play, to really twist the knife.

Those are precisely the areas where men excel, that explain their higher salaries. IF they're a 'different matter', you'll find yourself falling foul of the law, because men WILL be paid more.

Are you pretending to be dense, or did you wake up from hibernation, or what?

FUCK YOU'RE RETARDED CHRIST THIS HAS TO BE BAIT

The real question. This needs to be way more discussed DESU.
There's a reason why women vote for higher taxes and more government services, and it's because they pay the least taxes and get the most services.

Wage gap doesn't exist. What these statistical analytical fuckwads don't tell you when they say women earn 77c to the $ is that they've included the time women take off for having children, they dont pursue as higher paying jobs as men etc... if we truly lived in a society where women could be paid less than no fucking man would be employed because a business would make more off of simply employing a woman. But of course lets keep perpetuating this myth to give women another reason to feel like victims and men to feel like cunts.

That's what happen in practice, but I don't think females do it on purpose.

>Iceland makes it illegal to hire anyone due to paid voluntary slavery.

This is the real reason we can’t get rid of welfare. The tax gap between genders perpetuates, as a side-effect, the generational poverty afflicting blacks in America: because women continue to prop up a redistributional system to leech off men, blacks continue to live on welfare instead of learning to improve themselves.
End welfare and fix society.

The other reason for the wage gap is that it includes salaries over $100,000. When you get up into the top salaries, you find mostly men. If you only compare salaries under $100K, there is no gap.

Completely irrelevant is what it is

That law has been on the books here in California for decades. Having to learn that for a state test to get my contractors license was my final red pill.

>eradicate gender pay gap
can not happen
will not happen
they know this, what are they doing

it all comes down to the same conclusion
FORCE women to work more
or
FORCE men to work less

neither is going to happen

>make a new business that does the same thing every time you hit 24 employees

How is this different to any other country other than maybe Afghanistan?
That's not how commission works dummy.
>congratulations Micheal, you're now a superior assistant training master general and you get a raise
>sorry Sarah, you're still a assistant training master general so you don't get a raise
Come on, you anglos have been inventing work titles for decades now.

>vote supid law
>you just know someoe will try to use it to et a raise
>it gets proven the gap was imaginary and it's not stated in the law forever
this gonna be good.

So if the offer is 45-65k depending on experience then a woman with zero experience and a man with 15 years would have to he paid equally? That just means that nobody is going to take inexperienced candidates. Entry level for everyone.

Women are aware and are starting to try to loot more from men by inserting feminism into bugeting and fiscal decisions:
economist.com/news/finance-and-economics/21717404-designing-fiscal-policies-support-gender-equality-good-growth-why

Nah, a lot of women are aware of it in my experience.
The single moms know, the moms with retarded kids know, the moms who have friends with retarded kids know, the moms who are retarded know, even married women with perfectly healthy and productive children know.
The gouvernment is a piggybank dedicated to making women's lives easier.
The only things they don't know about this, are that its purpose is to get women to vote for more gouvernment, and that it's working.

Women don't work same jobs, same hours, have more time off work and generally won't touch labour jobs at all where they are poorly represented

Fuck off with the gender pay gap meme it's total bullshit. It's because of the choices women make that the disparity exists, not because of some vague idea of institutionalised sexism.

Man I think women are pretty dumb, but they're not THAT dumb. They're basically all statists, they all love high taxes as government services, and they systematically vote for the party that wants to expand the state the most.
Maybe they don't quite unpack it on the level of how it pairs up with men's interests, but they certainly know what they want, and vote for it.

So begins the later stages of decay in Iceland...

They just elected a commie SJW bitch and you thought they were based? WTF is wrong with you?

Almost every female I know doesn't know how the government or tax policy works.
They just get their paycheck and some of the services they're entitled to because they don't even know about all of the other services they could use "for free."
Women also never read contracts and then cry after they get fucked over by "the man."

>Now you will hire more men because it is cheaper.

Wow you did it

Women are low-risk and they vote for policies that reduce societal risk without thinking about possible consequences, specially by politicians who use their "empathy" to further their own goals.

wow it's nothing
fucking governments falling for memes I swear

Europeans like to laugh and call Americans retarded but you guys are laughably deranged. We don't deserve this civilization, I genuinely hope Islam just takes over because clearly whites can't handle this burden any longer

On a basic level, they know if they vote for socialism, they get bigger hand outs.

Isn't that already illegal in most (if not all ) countries?

Exactly.
They do exactly the same thing with UBI for example.
As soon as they hear "free money", they lose the ability to consider the fact that there's no such thing as free money.
Ask them where the money comes from, they'll pretend they never heard what you said.
Same with electric cars. Impracticality aside, where does the power come from? Coal furnaces, mostly. Educate them on it and watch them forget it again as soon as someone says "green transportation".

Simple solution: Fire all women, hire all men instead. No gender wage gap if they don't work at all

Iceland? More like Shiceland.

>meaningless forced inspection or pay a fine
so this is just a way to extort money out of companies right? companies that can afford it bribe the government to harass their competition about muh wage gap?

What did you expect? All laws have punishments, otherwise there's no incentive to obey them.

Somthing like 65 percent of the kids there are born out of wedlock. Marxist bullshit to support single motherhood.

Yes but people are stupid

So there will be even less incentive as a man to work?
So men will leave in droves to stay home and trade crypto?
So men will be served exclusively by qt waitresses?
So women will be the service workers now?
So women will basically be serving the men?

Can women be paid more than men though?

What happens if the Islandic man works overtime or if a female co-worker leaves early to make it to her yoga session?

They're on top but not unique in that regard.

No. Then they will claim discrimination based on population statistics and will get hiring targets that are legally enforced. The West must destroy itself. It is Allahs will.

Nice of Iceland to catch up with the USA!

remote Icelandic people are not based just lucky, they conveniently suffered an economic crisis in the middle of the migrant crisis and their remote location makes their country out of reach for most rapefugees.
