\nPay gaps can also be analysed from the perspective of part-time or full-time employment. Information at this level of detail is not available, however, for all EU Member States (Figure 2). In 2013, the gender pay gap for part-time workers varied from -8.2 % in Malta to 33.7 % in Spain. A negative gender pay gap means that on average women’s gross hourly earnings are higher than those of men. For full-time workers, pay gaps varied also widely in the EU Member States, ranging from 1.9 % in Italy to 20.3 % in Hungry. <\/p>\n
\nThe gender pay gap is generally much lower for young employees <\/p>\n
\nThe gender pay gap in the financial and insurance activities is higher than in the business economy as a whole <\/p>\n
\nIn 2013, the majority of the EU countries (for which data are available) recorded a higher gender pay gap in the private sector than in the public sector. <\/p>\n![\"Infographic:](\"https:\/\/d28wbuch0jlv7v.cloudfront.net\/images\/infografik\/normal\/chartoftheday_4159_the_eu_s_gender_pay_gap_visualised_n.jpg\")
