In this study, the research topic is about the gender inequality andtaxable income in different types of sectors in Australia. The first part of this report includes theresearch background, research aims and the literature review. In the second part, the researchmethodology, findings, discussions and conclusions are discussed.1.1 Problem StatementGender inequality can be defined as a situation in which men and women are not givenequal preference. When a male member receives a treatment unequal to a female member, theproblem of gender inequality arises (Giddenset al., 2016). Taxable income refers to the grossincome earned by an individual or business organization on which payable tax amount iscalculated (Blomquistet al., 2015). There is a very high gender segregation in the labor market of Australia in terms ofindustry and occupation. A pattern of this gender segregation exists from the past ten years.From the ancient times it has been seen that the society is male dominated. Though the degree ofdomination decreased with time, still the male members dominate the society and the females aregiven less priority than the males in all respects (Sharma, 2016). In the event of getting a job inany specific sector, more importance is given to the males. Priority is also given in excess to themales in terms of payment. Women do not always get the job they are qualified for and get a jobof a much lesser rank due to gender inequality. Thus, they get less payment as salary than themen.
