年龄稍大一些的工作女性的收入水平普遍低于男性。她们很多人只有在孩子长大后才在外面工作,所以只能从事非技术性的、低收入的工作。 其他工作了一辈子的女性通常只能拿到低工资,以及相应较低的社会保障金和个人退休金。
The income levels of older working women are generally lower than those of men; many never worked outside the home until their children were grown and then only at unskilled, low-paying jobs. Others who worked all their lives typically received low wages, with lower Social Security and private retirement benefits as a result.
