The superannuation gap for women isn't getting any smaller
Women live longer and retire earlier than men, but receive around a third less superannuation in their retirement. A new report by the Super Members Council has found the gap is failing to narrow - in particular for women in their thirties - calling on the government to pay superannuation on paid parental leave. But there are also issues around unpaid care work, performed predominantly by women, and which fails to receive superannuation.
