 Wage Gap - Economics Dictionary of Arguments
 
Wage gap: The wage gap in economics refers to the difference in earnings between different groups of workers. Specifically between skilled and unskilled labor, it measures how much more (or less) highly skilled workers earn compared to those with lower skills or less education. This gap is influenced by factors like technology, globalization, labor market institutions, and the relative supply and demand for different skill sets. See also Skilled labour, Labour, Wages, Relative wage, International trade.
